Music in Vienna actually had its first great flourishing long before Mozart and Haydn. The Holy Roman Emperors of the seventeenth century were great music lovers and connoisseurs, who brought together virtuosos from Italy and native-born composers at their splendid court in Vienna. This program offered by Quicksilver brings to life the extravagant and sumptuous sonatas of these lesser-known masters.

The Lyric Opera of Kansas City, in partnership with Grace and Holy Trinity Cathedral, present The Haberdasher Prince

We’re partnering with Lyric Opera of Kansas City to bring you a performance of a new opera for families: The Haberdasher Prince!

In a far-off land, a very musical king has a not-very-musical son. Everyone pretends to enjoy the prince’s terrible concerts, but a bold village girl refuses to play along. The king demands she be punished, but the prince shows mercy. Happily, the prince and the peasant girl devise an arrangement showcasing their true talents.

All performances will be immediately followed by group discussions to foster personal and meaningful connections to the art. This event is free, but please RSVP.

Sunday, April 21 • 5 p.m.

Sunday, May 19 • 5 p.m.

Choral Evensong

Choral Evensong is a service offered by members of the Trinity Choir. This contemplative service lasts about 45 minutes and includes hymns, scripture readings, prayers, chanted Psalms, canticles and a choir anthem. With its origins in Archbishop Thomas Cranmer’s Book of Common Prayer (1549), Evensong is one of the most uniquely Anglican liturgies and is sung in cathedrals and parishes throughout the world.

All information is subject to change. Most events are in the Nave unless otherwise specified.
