Epiphany (A • 2026)

Jan 2

Greetings all—
Again, I must thank you all for the tremendous amount of effort you have put in the last few weeks!

Here is our ordo for Epiphany; we will once again keep things on the simpler side this year since so many things occurred in such rapid succession and we did not have a dedicated rehearsal this week.

A quick note on the Psalm: this is written with an oriental flair, and features copious parallel intervals which only work well when each part is sung with a certain vigor. Please make sure you are comfortable with your parts, and don’t be afraid to lean in during the deliberate moments where there are crunchy chords.

There are full videos for each voice part.
