Choral Evensong Service in Memory of J. Samuel Hammond

Duke Chapel is holding this special Choral Evensong worship service in memory of the late J. Samuel Hammond, the university carillonneur emeritus. The service will include its customary Anglican liturgy and English choral music, which were beloved by Hammond. Additionally, the Chapel carillon will play before and after the service in honor of Hammond. Here is the worship guide for the service: https://chapel.duke.edu/sites/default... . For more than fifty years, Hammond marked time, campus occasions, liturgical dates, and cultural moments with his music on the Chapel carillon. He faithfully played the instrument's fifty bells at 5:00 p.m. on weekdays as well as before and after Sunday services and on special occasions. In 2018, the university trustees named the Chapel carillon in his honor. Read more remembrances of Hammond.
