HYMN PROJECT
in collaboration with The Sacred Ensemble
The Hymn Project was envisioned and founded by the incomparable Dr. Shana Mashego, soprano and visionary. The project preserves hymnody through the arrangement, composition, and performance of sacred hymns. Christopher T. F. Hanson has been incredibly fortunate to serve the project as the chief composer/arranger and the first violinist since its inception in 2014.
