Considering Matthew Shepard is a powerful musical response to the life and 1998 death of Matthew Shepard, a young gay college student in Wyoming brutally murdered in a highly publicized hate crime.
Composed by Craig Hella Johnson, this "fusion oratorio" blends a variety of musical styles, voices, and texts inviting the listener to "consider" Matthew's legacy and to strive for inclusive community through hope, kindness, and peace.
Considering Matthew Shepard is presented in collaboration between the Chancel Choir of Park Church and the Holland Chorale under the direction of Patrick Coyle. Join us at Park Church on Saturday, February 25 at 3:30pm. There is no charge to attend. A free will offering will be accepted.
