Send-Off Evensong & Reception

Thurs., 7/24, 7 pm, Church & Commons

Please join the Trinity choirs for a special Send-Off Evensong (followed by a reception in the Commons) as they prepare to embark on their 2025 England Pilgrimage. With more than 80 pilgrims, including 23 choristers and teens, your fellow parishioners will lead Choral Evensong each night for two weeks at Canterbury and St. Paul's Cathedrals in England. 

Catch them singing daily Choral Evensong on Canterbury Cathedral’s livestream (except Thurs., 7/31) at 12:30 pm, Boston time. Tune in at youtube.com/c/CanterburyCathedralOfficial.

From the Historian: William Payne Blake

“Even as he followed in his father’s footsteps to practice law, Blake maintained a keen and active interest in music. Friends would later note that music contributed much to the happiness of his life. He became a trustee of the New England Conservatory of Music and for many years was Secretary for the Harvard Musical Association. He, along with friend and founder of the Boston Symphony Orchestra, Henry Lee Higginson, was a founding trustee of the Paderewski Prize for American Composers. Devout in his faith as an Episcopalian, he was an active parishioner at Trinity Church, including serving on the Building Committee that oversaw the construction of Trinity Church in the Back Bay.”
