Join Cathedral orchestra, choir, and soloist for an unforgettable Palm Sunday, April 2, 4 p.m.

The Neo-Gothic splendor of the massive and celebrated Washington National Cathedral is the ideal setting for a once-in-a-lifetime orchestral musical performance celebrating Palm Sunday.

This season, the Cathedral begins Holy Week on Sunday, April 2, with reverence and beauty expressed through the music of 20th century composers Francis Poulenc and Maurice Duruflé.

The 4 p.m. concert features the talents of soprano Laura Choi Stuart and the musicians of the Washington National Cathedral Choir and the Washington National Cathedral Orchestra, conducted by Michael McCarthy.

The performance promises to be deeply moving and a soulful Palm Sunday awakening as the music reflects the spiritual expression of the composers. The concert program includes Poulenc’s “Quatre motets pour un temps de pénitence” and “Sept répons des ténèbres,” and Duruflé’s “Quatre Motets sur des thèmes grégoriens” and “Requiem,” all performed by the Cathedral Choir, and renowed soloist Stuart. 

As two of Paris’ greatest 20th century composers, Poulenc and Duruflé pioneered new forms of musical expression within the Catholic church.

Washingtonians: We did it! It’s officially spring. Cue cherry blossoms, baseball games, patio brunches — and spring cleaning.

If you’re looking for a hard reset — a renewal of sorts — get your home professionally cleaned with Well-Paid Maids.

Their cleaners do it all: mopping, vacuuming, dusting and wiping down surfaces, scrubbing toilets, and more. They can even take care of your most dreaded tasks, including cleaning the fridge and oven, changing bed sheets, sanitizing trash cans, and more.

But what really sets Well-Paid Maids apart from other cleaning services is it pays employees (note: not contractors) a fair, living wage of at least $22 an hour. Plus, employees have access to health, dental and vision insurance; 24 paid days off a year; employer-paid commuting; and more.

That means you’ll not only have a spotless home — you’ll also feel good supporting a business committed to making change.

So go ahead and officially welcome spring this year by booking your spring cleaning online.
