12 Days of Christmas in the East Concert

January 6, 2018 from 5:00 pm - 7:00 pm

|Recurring Event (See all)

Free

In this program, the Boston Byzantine Choir will take us on a journey of sacred chant through the 12 Days of Christmas in the East starting with the Nativity and ending with Epiphany.  Each day from Dec 25 to Jan 6 brings its own hymnography rich in the theology of the season, beautifully expressed through the Byzantine musical tradition.

For the past 25 years, the Boston Byzantine Choir has endeavored to make Byzantine chant and the Orthodox Christian faith accessible to the English-speaking world. This program, which includes the New England premiere of new Byzantine chant compositions in English by Dr. Jessica Suchy-Pilalis, will form the basis for a recording entitled TWELVE DAYS to be released later in 2018.

Join us for a Vespers service at 5:00pm and a concert at 6:00pm!
