For Us the Living

Celebrate with us as Christ Church presents a choral and organ concert as part of the 25th anniversary of the church’s Casavant organ. The evening will feature Christ Church’s Chancel Choir, with organist, Justin Wallace, and violinist, Charles May, in a performance For Us the Living: A Requiem, by Alfred Fedak. The composer states, the work “is meant to serve as a grateful affirmation of the gift of life, and as an expression of comfort, consolation, hope, and encouragement to all who have suffered loss. It is, quite literally, a requiem for us, the living.” This is one of the first times the work has been performed in Pittsburgh.
