Second Annual Lenten Organ Recital Print

Friday, April 15, 2011, 7 p.m.
Stations of the Cross       
   stations sample.jpg
St. Mary’s Canon Organist/Choirmaster Scott Elsholz will perform Marcel Dupré’s Stations of the Cross.  This masterpiece of organ literature began life as a series of improvisations on the poetry of Paul Claudel, and fortunately, Dupré later transcribed these improvisations so that they could be performed for future generations.  This performance will include a recitation of the English translations of the original French poetry, in addition to projected images of the fourteen Stations of the Cross. 

Concert is free and open to the public. Donations welcome.

"Church"  or "Cathedral"?

St. Mary’s became the cathedral church of the Episcopal Diocese of West Tennessee in 1983. It was the cathedral to the old statewide Diocese of Tennessee for 102 years before that. So this is a regular parish church — complete with active members and lots of stuff happening — led by our dean, Andy Andrews. But as a cathedral, it’s also the “seat” or home-base of the Bishop of West Tennessee, Don Johnson. This congregation literally handed over its keys to an earlier bishop in 1871 when we pledged to support his ministry to all Episcopal parishes and missions in the diocese.
