Sunday at 10:30 a.m. Saint Mark’s will celebrate Trinity Sunday with a special service of Choral Matins with Holy Eucharist, with music by the Saint Mark’s Choir. It will be the choir’s final service of the season. Music will include canticles by Charles Villiers Stanford, responses by John Reading, and anthems by Jan Pieterszoon Sweelinck and Thomas Tallis. Tyler Robertson plays organ works by Healey Willan. All are welcome!
Pictured here is the great Irish composer Charles Villiers Stanford (1852–1924). Born in Dublin, he was educated at the University of Cambridge, where he was appointed organist at Trinity College while still an undergraduate. He was one of the founding professors of the Royal College of Music. The choir will be singing his beautiful Morning Service in B-flat (Te Deum and Jubilate Deo).
