The Cathedral Chamber Choir will sing Choral Evensong for the Confession of St. Peter at 5 pm on Sunday, January 23. The Gospel reading is John 21:15-22, where Jesus, in one of his post-Easter appearances, questions Peter: “Do you love me?” and Peter, who denied Christ before his crucifixion, assures him that he does.

The Responses are by Margaret Burk. The service is Roland Martin’s “St. Paul’s, Buffalo,” composed for the Cathedral there. Martin teaches at the University at Buffalo and is a prolific organist, accompanist, and composer in Western New York.

An organ prelude at 4:45 pm features the music of the French composer and organist Henri Mulet (1878-1967). Dwight Thomas is director and organist.
