Fauré Requiem Concert, April
27, 2002
The Christ
Church Choir, under the direction of Dr. Laura Russell, performed Gabriel Fauré's Requiem, with chamber
orchestra, on Saturday, April 27. Fauré called his Requiem
a
“lullaby of death”. It sees death as a joyous deliverance, a
reaching for eternal happiness, rather than a mournful passing.

Vestments and liturgical cloths,
custom-designed by Elizabeth Gillon, were dedicated during a Sunday
morning service in January, 2002. The spectacular pieces were
commissioned and presented to Christ Church as a gift in honor of the
marriage of James E. Bliss and Marjorie B. Ecton, two long-time
parishioners. Gillon, who specializes in designing and creating
liturgical garments, used bits of fabric that represented the various
ministries of Christ Church to simulate a stained glass effect.
