This Sunday, November 11 at 11:00am, St. Paul’s Episcopal Church at 199 Carroll Street in Carroll Gardens is commemorating the 100th anniversary of Armistice Day with a special service.
From St. Paul's:
"Please plan to join us for this special service, a requiem mass in honor of all those who died in wartime. The original Remembrance Day (sometimes still called Armistice Day) was instituted at the end of World War I, at 11:00 am, on the 11th day of the 11th month, in 1918. Remembrance Sunday this year is particularly significant and poignant because it is exactly the centennial, down to the 11:00 am starting time. We will begin our service as they did 100 years ago with two minutes of silence. Please plan to join us and invite your friends and neighbors to the special celebration."
"American composers and American poets, including music by Elliot Carter, William Schuman, Aaron Copland, Robert Applebaum, Eric Whitacre, and Elliot Levine, as well as a world premiere by New York composer Susan Kander, featuring the poetry of William Carlos Williams. Other poets on the program include Emily Dickinson, Marianne Moore, Walt Whitman, Genevieve Taggard, Langston Hughes, and e.e. cummings."
General Admission $20 online, $25 at the door. Student tickets $15 at the door only.
