Acts & Actes
An Evening of Renaissance Music
|
Join us for an evening performance of Actes of the Apostles by Christopher Tye, with music from "Voces Angelorum", interspersed with readings from Acts by N.T Wright. |
About the event
The event will feature vocal performances of Renaissance music from 'Voces Angelorum', lead by Ryland Angel, plus music by William Byrd and Christopher Tye's Actes of the Apostles. Tom Wright will tie the evening together, linking the musical pieces to passages from Acts in his readings.
This event will give a unique insight into the roots of Christian worship and hymns, and is open to all.
Wycliffe Hall has set itself the modest task of fostering a New Renaissance of Christian scholarship, leadership and culture. As a key component of this vision, an innovative new project starting in autumn 2025 will help us to equip the Church to engage intelligently, creatively, winsomely, humbly with our society again, and to offer it a better song to sing. We will provide a unique formation experience to cultivate theological depth, artistic excellence, and multi-dimensional diversity in congregational music- and worship-leaders.
