The Pittsburgh Compline Choir is a mixed voice, auditioned choir of approximately 16-24 members, that exists for the purpose of singing and praying the monastic office of Compline.  The name Compline comes from the Latin word completorium or completed, and is sometimes called Night Prayer or Prayer at the Close of the Day or The way the Church says “goodnight.” Each Sunday night, The Pittsburgh Compline Choir joins with members of the community at Heinz Memorial Chapel on the campus of the University of Pittsburgh for 40 minutes of music, prayer, and silence to thank God for the blessings of the day and pray for forgiveness, peace and rest.  Attending Compline at Heinz Chapel is a perfect way to end your weekend or begin your week. 

Members of the choir represent various Christian traditions. They are graduate and undergraduate students, parish & professional musicians, clergy, and lay people from the metropolitan Pittsburgh area and the surrounding areas of southwestern Pennsylvania.
