The Three Hermits

Church Opera
Thursday, July 6 at 7:00 pm
The House of Hope Presbyterian Church, St. Paul

On July 6, 2023 at 7:00 pm, The Motet Choir at House of Hope Presbyterian Church will present a concert production of Stephen Paulus’s church opera The Three Hermits.  The opera features a libretto by Michael Dennis Browne based on a short story by Leo Tolstoy.  The Three Hermits gave birth to one of the most well known choral works of the late twentieth century, “The Pilgrim’s Hymn” which has been performed thousands of times around the world.  The concert will be conducted by Matt Culloton and features many of the same instrumentalists and singers who premiered the work in 1997.
