TRADITIONAL CHORAL EVENSONG

"Evensong", also known as Evening Prayer, is a beautiful choral service in the Anglican tradition. Its equivalent is the combination of Vespers and Compline in the Roman Catholic Church. 

This service has a great choral potential for choirs of any level. Rituals are also a must see. At St Andrew's, Evensong is sung using mainly Anglican and Gregorian Chant. The service is led by St Andrew's Singers together with Musica Sacra - directed by Jack Ho and officiated by the Rector.

 There're countless settings of the Canticles and plenty more for the psalms and prayers. The use of Fauxbourdon in chant is most evident in a service such as Evensong where the chant is often "interrupted" by periods of homophonic harmony - creating a stunningly beautiful moment!

 St Andrew's is one of the few churches in Brisbane to house 13 bells, and indeed the church is well known in the local community for its beautiful ringing. The bells will be rung at the conclusion of the Choral Evensong.
