Choral Evensong traces its roots to ancient monastic worship, where communities sang all 150 psalms and read Scripture throughout the day and night, seeking to “pray without ceasing.” Evensong centers on psalms, Scripture readings, and prayers for the Church and world, framed by the canticles Magnificat and Nunc dimittis. This structure was formalized in the 1662 Book of Common Prayer and has remained largely unchanged, preserving a centuries-old pattern of sung prayer within the Anglican tradition. Join us for this longstanding and deeply moving tradition.
