The Roueché Chorale and Orchestra will present “Colors of Grace,” a Lenten cantata, at 7 p.m. Tuesday in Covenant Presbyterian Church, 8451 East Brainerd Road.
This will be the 10th performance of the Joseph Martin work by the chorale. Through narration and music, the lessons of service, obedience, humility and forgiveness are explained. Entwined throughout the cantata is the call of Jesus: “Take my yoke upon you; come and learn from me.”
“This work is so deeply layered that the Holy Spirit reveals new lessons to me each time we present this piece,” said George Taylor, narrator of the cantata for several years. “Not only is each lesson renewed, but I gain a deeper understanding of these lessons each year.”
” ‘Colors of Grace’ portrays the story of Christ’s suffering and experience on the Cross and asks us to meditate on the life of Jesus and the gift of grace given us through his sacrifice,” said Janet Jorges, chorale member.
The Roueché Chorale is a nondenominational music ministry founded by Jeffrey C. Roueché in 1999.
