"The Crucifixion" by John Stainer

This Sunday at 5:30 pm, you won't want to miss the presentation of "The Crucifixion" by John Stainer, sung by members of the Cathedral choir and the Anglican Chorale of Southeast Florida. This famous choral work is one of the best-known Passion oratorios of the Anglican tradition, and it is a stunning example of "high Victorian era" sacred music.

John Stainer was born in London on June 6, 1840. At age 7, he began singing in the choir at Saint Paul's Cathedral in London. At a very young age he was already an excellent singer and organist, and in 1854 at the age of 14, he was made organist and choirmaster of the Church of St. Peter and St. Paul in Paul's Wharf, London. He would go on to study music and later to teach at Oxford University, and he then returned to Saint Paul's Cathedral as organist and choirmaster in 1872 at age 32. He would remain at Saint Paul's for 16 years and was later appointed Professor of Music at Oxford in 1888 and was knighted by Queen Victoria.

Stainer was an incredibly accomplished composer of music. During his lifetime he composed four oratorios: Gideon (1865), The Daughter of Jairus (1878), St. Mary Magdalen (1887) and finally his most popular work, The Crucifixion (1887). He also wrote 42 choir anthems as well as well as many hymn tunes, organ pieces, evening canticles, and madrigals. Several of Stainer's hymns are found in our own Episcopal Hymnal 1982, and he also wrote several Christmas tunes which have become the standard versions for the entire English-speaking world: "What Child is This", "God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen", "Good King Wenceslas", "The First Nowell", and "I Saw Three Ships."


The music of "The Crucifixion" allows us to hear the words of Holy Scripture and experience the Passion of Jesus in new and unexpected ways. I can't think of a better way to prepare ourselves for Holy Week on this Last Sunday in Lent. If you can make time in your afternoon this Sunday, please do. It will be a wonderful gift of music, reflection, and prayer in the beautiful and holy space that is Trinity Cathedral.

Blessings for a continued Holy Lent,

"Pews to Chairs" Project 


There is still time to donate a chair!


For many decades now, pews have been replaced by chairs in countless cathedrals and churches across the Episcopal Church and the world with remarkable success. In many cases, it has allowed congregations to experience a transformation and rebirth of their communities. Stackable, multi-use chairs will give Trinity a fully flexible and multi-purpose space that functions not only for worship, but for a variety of ministry and community events. (See the above picture of Trinity's new cathedral chairs which arrived the week before Christmas.)


The success of Transforming Trinity and the Pews to Chairs project depends on the donation of chairs by cathedral parishioners, congregations, and individuals across The Episcopal Church in Southeast Florida and the wider Church. Chairs may be donated in honor of or in memory of a loved one or in honor of a specific church, congregation, or organization. Please consider donating one or more chairs!


To donate: Please download the chair donation form HERE, complete it, and make your check payable to Trinity Episcopal Cathedral. Please make sure to write “Pews to Chairs” in the memo line. Mail checks and forms to: Trinity Episcopal Cathedral, 464 NE 16th Street, Miami, FL 33132. 


Online donations can also be made on the Cathedral website (www.trinitymiami.org) under the “Giving” tab – please be sure to choose the “Pews to Chairs Campaign” on the dropdown menu to designate your donation.


Please reach out to Father Jason by email at frjason@trinitymiami.org if you have any questions or concerns. You can also find more details about the Pews to Chairs project HERE.
