Choral Vespers

For thirty-five years, Choral Vespers has been a way to end the busy work day with scripture, prayer, and sacred music. The service is led by Chapel and local ministers with music from the Duke Vespers Ensemble.

This service contains some of the earliest music sung in Duke Chapel, some dating from the early fifteenth century. The music includes a hymn by Guillaume Dufay (c.1397-1474), a Magnificat by Giles Binchois (c.1400-1460), an anthem by Heinrich Isaac (c.1450-1517), and several anonymous works from the 15th century manuscript Montecassino 871.

Face masks are required to be worn inside of the Chapel. Learn more about the university's public health measures: https://returnto.duke.edu/public-health-measures/ .
