O How Glorious: Venerating the Saints throughout the Church Year

  • Our Lady of the Holy Family Church 1334 West Flournoy Street Chicago, IL, 60607 United States (map)

Join the Chicago Catholic Choir for our spring concert of church music commemorating great feasts for saints throughout the church year. Spanning centuries and continents, these compositions were inspired by the remarkable holiness of the saints and by the rich liturgical traditions that issued from their veneration. Works by Marenzio, Lassus, Victoria, Hassler, Graziani, director Kevin Allen, and others.

Hear familiar and lesser-known hymns to saints, including Kevin Allen’s setting of “Ut queant laxis” from the Divine Office for the Nativity of John the Baptist.

Free and open to the public!
