| Summary: | While the number of churchgoers has constantly been going down in the last years, an interesting observation can be made: The number of people attending choral evensong has significantly increased in the last decades. Not only believers, but non-believers as well are overwhelmed by this form of liturgy based on the singing of the choir. This article describes the project of Salzburg’s Evensong, an adaption of the Anglican choral evensong for the German-speaking context of catholic or protestant parishes. Based on the theological awareness that faith comes from hearing, the project focuses on the insight that singing is a way of proclamation as well. Thus, Salzburg’s Evensong offers an attractive liturgical format that has an ecumenical dimension and pays attention to the aesthetic aspect of faith. |
