Annotated Compline

Annotated Compline—as sung at Saint Mark’s Episcopal Cathedral, Seattle, Washington

This edition of the Organ Loft radio program with host Roger Sherman was first aired in January, 1995. It includes excerpts from the Compline Choir’s recording Feathers of Green Gold with an annotated version of the Compline service, and an interview with Peter Hallock about the history of the Compline service at Saint Mark’s. Since its founding in 1956, the all-male Compline Choir has sung the medieval Office of Compline in a dark Cathedral on Sunday nights. The success of this service and its appeal to young people has sparked a worldwide revival of interest in Compline.
