The Confession of Saint Peter | Choral Evensong on January 18, 2026
Episode 146
Sunday, 18 January, 2026
This week's service includes settings of the Magnificat and Nunc Dimittis by William Mathias (Jesus College Service), Preces and Responses by Anthony Piccolo, Present Yourselves as a Living Sacrifice by James O'Donnell and Tu es petrus by Giovanni Pierluigi da Palestrina. Sung at the close of day in cathedrals and churches throughout the world, Choral Evensong is a service of Evening Prayer, derived from the ancient offices of Vespers and Compline. The choir sings the traditional evening prayers of the church that have been offered for centuries, while the congregation listens, joins in the hymns, and adds their own prayers to those of the choir. It is an opportunity for peaceful meditation before the start of a busy week.
