66th Annual Diocesan Choral Festival | Free Choral Performance

Come hear one of Downtown Houston’s historic spaces filled with voices from across Texas. On Sunday, November 15, Christ Church Cathedral opens its doors to the Houston community for the 66th Annual Diocesan Choral Festival: From All Saints to Advent — A Service of Readings & Music. Singers from throughout the Episcopal Diocese of Texas will come together to form a massed choir under the direction of Dr. Joseph Causby, Director of Music and Organist at Christ Church Cathedral. The program journeys from All Saints through Remembrance and Christ the King toward the anticipation of Advent, pairing readings and congregational hymns with choral music by William Boyce, Samuel Coleridge-Taylor, Betty Pulkingham, and Christopher Steel. And the setting is almost as special as the music. Founded in 1839, Christ Church is Houston’s oldest existing congregation and has witnessed the remarkable growth of the city around it. Its historic Cathedral remains an architectural and spiritual landmark in the heart of Downtown Houston. You are invited to experience it. 🎶 Massed choir featuring singers from across Texas⛪ Historic Christ Church Cathedral🎼 Sacred choral masterworks and beloved hymns🥂 Reception following the Festival Service🎟️ FREE admission
