About the Event
Join the Chamber Ensemble of The King's Counterpoint as they present a very special Service of Choral Evensong at historic Old St. Andrew's Parish Church in Charleston, celebrating Candlemas - the purification of Mary and presentation of Jesus at the Temple.
A predominantly sung service that's held daily in the English Anglican tradition, Evensong is believed to be descended from the traditions and practices of the medieval monastic offices of the Roman church and marks the passing of another day in faith. Only about 45 minutes long and featuring choral music, readings and prayers, Evensong has inspired compositions from some of the finest composers of choral music in history.
This is a freewill offering event - tickets are not required, and donations will be gratefully accepted!
