Choral Evensong for Christmas
Sunday, January 4 at 4 p.m.
sung by the Cathedral Choir
Though the decorations may come down and the holidays may seem to be over, in the Church Christmas is a 12-day season of celebration! Join the Cathedral Choir for Choral Evensong and one last opportunity for beloved Christmas carols until next year. This service features American composer Morten Lauridsen’s ethereal anthem “O magnum mysterium,” beloved for its kaleidoscopic harmonies and intimate depiction of the nativity.
Choral Repertoire:
Bach – O little one sweet
Ayleward – Preces & Responses
Gibbons – Short Evening Service
Lauridsen – O magnum mysterium
A festive reception will follow in Kyle’s Place.
Plan your visit
When you visit St. James Cathedral, expect to receive a warm welcome! Whether you are a committed follower of Christ, a first-time visitor who is joining a friend, or fall somewhere in between, you're not just welcome, you belong.
It is not uncommon for people to either dress casually or formally when visiting the Cathedral. Our priority is that you to feel comfortable. Children are always welcome at St. James. There is an open space to the front right of the pews for children to play under your supervision and a changing station for parents of our youngest members under the church in the restrooms.
The cathedral is accessible to people with limited mobility. An access ramp is located at the west end of the building, 65 E. Huron St.
