Choral Evensong with Sermon in Music – Sunday after Ascension

This service of Choral Evensong with a Sermon in Music for the Sunday after Ascension, 12th May 2024, has been collated from archive live music recordings together with prayers and readings for the appointed day specially recorded in church and in people's homes. It features a Sermon in Music which gives our professional St Bride's Choir the opportunity to sing for an extended period on a theme relevant to the liturgical season.
