Traditional Music Celebration Service

10:15 am



On Sunday, May 17, in the 10:15 Sanctuary service, we will have our Traditional Music Celebration Service. This year, the theme is The Nature of Praise, and the centerpiece of the service is the Gloria of Antonio Vivaldi. It will be presented with oboe, trumpet, strings and harpsichord accompaniment. Featured soloists will be Giny Mackey, Annette Schopf and Jennifer Smith.

The service will also include John Rutter’s The Lord is my Shepherd, featuring oboist Jeffrey O’Donnell with the Chancel Choir.

The Carillon Bell Choir and organist Margaret Marsch will join in a stirring arrangement of Praise to the Lord, the Almighty by composer Hart Morris.

The volunteer musicians of Lancaster Church of the Brethren spend months preparing for our special musical events, in addition to providing music in weekly worship services. Be sure to attend on May 17 to hear this musical celebration!
