Friday, October 9, 7-9 p.m., sanctuary

(Behind the Scenes talk at 1:15 p.m., sanctuary)

(pre-concert talk at 6:15 p.m., sanctuary)

Local professional choral ensemble Sphere Born returns to St. Paul’s for its season-opening concert, featuring a sweeping program of English choral music from the past five centuries. The centerpiece is Hubert Parry’s powerful “Blest Pair of Sirens,” written for eight-part choir and organ. The work’s title also inspired the ensemble’s name, making its inclusion especially fitting. All are invited! Tickets are $25 each; students attend free but must have a ticket. Click below to purchase tickets through Sphere Born:
