NMH Vespers

 

NMH Vespers has combined choral and orchestral music, carols, and readings since the 1930s.

On-campus Vespers is held in a candlelit Memorial Chapel. This event is a lovely showcase of the students' musical skills as well as a moving celebration of the winter holiday season. 

Vespers is held off campus as well, alternating between Boston and New York City each year.
