French organist and composer Olivier Messiaen wrote his landmark piece in 1935, and it is a thoroughly modernist take on the Christmas story. His shepherds play pipes, his angels dance playfully, and his depiction of the arrival of the Word of God (“Dieu parmi nous”) is quite simply earth shattering. The Cathedral’s Director of Music, Donald Hunt, plays the mighty Wolff organ. Admission by donation.
