Choral Compline

  • St. Paul's Memorial Church 1701 University Avenue Charlottesville, VA 22903 USA (map)

For the 7:30 p.m. service on Sunday, November 14, a small choir featuring University Fellowship students, our Choral Scholars and our music staff, sings a service of Choral Compline. Sung by candlelight, the gorgeous music includes ancient plainsong and motets by 16th century composers Palestrina and John Sheppard. From the monastic tradition, Compline is the final service (office) of the day, a quiet and reflective service meant to prepare us for rest. Come experience St. Paul’s in this special atmosphere with music that reaches deep into the soul.
