Join us at St. Paul's Episcopal Church in Oakland as the choir sings a quiet service of Gregorian chant and polyphony in the service for the end of the day.

Only a few tapers illuminate the interior; candelabra suffuse the altar with a golden glow. The choir files in and begins singing the versicles and psalms, some in Latin and some in English. After a few prayers sung by the choir and cantor, but before the conclusion of the service, a meditative silence settles over the congregation for about ten minutes, and the sense of God’s peace grows deeper.

St. Paul's is located at 114 Montecito Ave. in Oakland.
