Soli Deo Gloria returns March 7

Solideogloria2

St. Anselm's is excited to welcome back to Lafayette and our acoustically rich sanctuary Soli Deo Gloria on March 7th at 3:30 p.m. for "Grant Us Peace: The Music of Ralph Vaughan Williams." 

Ralph Vaughan Williams's (1872–1958) fascination with the voice was both lifelong and deeply profound. Regardless of their subject matter, his choral compositions affirm and celebrate the human experience, presenting choral singers of all levels with challenging but extremely satisfying musical experiences. From the sensuous beauty of the Serenade to Music—a piece so exquisite that it caused Sergei Rachmaninoff to weep—to a powerful plea for peace in the Dona Nobis Pacem, this is a timely and timeless program.
