Sunday’s Music
Sunday, February 23
We thank Dr. Michael Burnette for leading the music of our worship this morning. The composer of our Offertory Anthem, Arthur William Foote, was part of a group of distinguished late 19th/early 20th century American composers known as the “The Boston Six”. Foote was one of the founders of the American Guild of Organists, which has since become the most important professional organization for church musicians, welcoming organists of all faiths and traditions. Our Communion Anthem is a well-known choral work of Mozart: his sublime Ave verum corpus, K 618, written in June of 1791, six months before his death at the age of thirty-five.
