Weekly Choral Vespers services at Duke Chapel are back in session. This is weekly service of readings, prayers, and choral music with a liturgy that is based on the Anglican evensong tradition. Services are 30-40 minutes every Thursday during the academic year at 5:15 pm EST and led by the Duke Vespers Ensemble, an all-volunteer chamber choir of Duke students and community members.
Here is a link to the service from last week. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fTT-FRgUkSc&feature=player_detailpage#t=106
