At St. Bartholomew’s Church, Sunday 11 am services designated A Choral Feast present the opportunity to experience great sacred choral repertoire, often heard in concert halls, within their original context of a worship service. The fourth Sunday in Lent is often a day that breaks the penitential pattern of these forty days of preparation and includes some celebration and rejoicing. In that spirit, St. Bartholomew's Choir and chamber orchestra will offer Mozart’s Missa Brevis in F, K. 192, as well as the “Laudate Pueri” movement from his Solemn Vespers. The Mass is a tuneful and uplifting work composed when the 18-year-old Mozart was employed as a church musician by the ruler of Salzburg, Prince-Archbishop Hieronymous Colloredo.

Join us in person (Park Avenue at 51st Street) or online (live streaming on YouTube and Facebook) to hear St. Bartholomew's Choir sing this beloved work with orchestra on Sunday, 3/30, at 11 am.

Rachel Doehring Jackson, soprano soloist.
