Laudamus, the premier choir of seminarians from Concordia Seminary, St. Louis, will perform under the theme “My Song is Love Unknown” at several locations across Oklahoma, Texas and Missouri during its 2025 tour scheduled for March 14-19.

The tour theme, “My Song is Love Unknown,” is drawn from the powerful hymn by Samuel Crossman featured in the program along with other music for Lent, designed to deepen worship experiences during this penitential season. The performances will include various pieces, from traditional choral settings to newer works, all aimed at sharing the message of God’s deep and sacrificial love.

“Our program this year helps us to see the incredible love of God the Father in sending His own Son to redeem us from sin, death and the power of the devil. Set within the Service of Evening Prayer, this Lenten program also expresses the love we have in thankfulness to our Savior for the salvation He brings” said Dr. Samuel Eatherton, assistant professor of Practical Theology, kantor, the Kreft Professor for Music Arts and director of Laudamus.
