I can't be there, but if you're in Boston, maybe you can!
Please join The Seraphim Singers for our second offering of the season! Holy Trinity Church's Christian Arts Series presents a free concert of choral music, with Margaret Angelini and Robert Barney on organ.Featured on this concert is a new work by Thomas Bold, formerly of Chanticleer, whose setting of John Donne's "La Corona" serves as the jewel in the Crown of Prayer and Praise presented in this wide-ranging program. Those who follow Chanticleer will also find a familiar friend in the Distler setting of "Es ist ein Ros", featured on Chanticleer's Christmas CD with Dawn Upshaw.
We hope you will join us for an afternoon of musical prayer and praise!
