On Wednesday, April 17th, at 8:30 PM, the Choir of Saint Martin’s will lead a sung service of the office of Tenebrae (one of the offices of the Liturgy of the Hours during the Holy Triduum). The Psalms are chanted while the candles in the sanctuary are slowly extinguished. The focal point of the service is the singing of the setting of the Lamentations of Jeremiah by English Renaissance composer, Thomas Tallis. This will be followed shortly after by the singing of the motet Christus Factus Est by the Austrian composer Anton Bruckner.

This is one of the most moving services of Holy Week, and we hope you are able to join us!
