Compline by Candlelight provides peace and stillness as one week ends and another begins. Set in the tranquility of St. Paul’s Chapel, guests find a seat and hold a candle, while 30 minutes of chant-based improvised music by Downtown Voices fills the space. There’s nothing to do but listen, breathe, and be.
The Liturgy of Good Friday, including the Passion Gospel according to John chanted by Trinity Choir, the Solemn Collects, devotional hymns, Veneration of the Cross, Communion from the Reserved Sacrament, and anthems.
This symbol-rich liturgy features candlelit readings, psalms and canticles, Holy Baptism, the First Eucharist of Easter, and festive choral anthems sung by The Choir of Trinity Wall Street.
