The University’s Festival of Lessons and Carols in All Saints’ Chapel will be on Sunday, Dec. 2. The first service begins at 5 p.m., and the second begins at 8 p.m. The doors open one hour before the beginning of each service.
The Greening of the Chapel takes place today (Friday, Nov. 30), and all are welcome to participate.
This Advent service is based on one that has been sung annually since 1918 at King’s College Chapel in Cambridge, England. It features the University choir under the direction of University organist and choirmaster Robert Delcamp and Jason Farris, assistant University organist.
Both services of Lessons and Carols are open to the public. Seating is limited and is on a first-come, first-seated basis. Reservations are not needed or accepted, but requests for handicap access and seating should be made by calling 598-1274.
For more about the history of the festival worldwide and in Sewanee, see Annie Armour’s column on page 11.
