History of Western Civilization Told Through the Acoustics of its Worship Spaces
The authorship of the hymn “What Wondrous Love Is This?” is unknown, and it is believed to be a traditional American folk hymn that emerged in the early 19th century. The hymn is sometimes attributed to American composer and music educator William Walker, who included it in his songbook “Southern Harmony” in 1835. It has become a beloved hymn in many Christian traditions, particularly during the season of Lent and Holy Week, as it helps worshippers reflect on the depth and meaning of Jesus Christ’s sacrifice.

“Things aren’t all so tangible and sayable as people would usually have us believe; most experiences are unsayable; they happen in a space that no word has ever entered, and more unsayable than all other things are works of art, those mysterious existences, whose life endures beside our own small, transitory life.”

For the first time since the 1950s, renovations are planned for the University of Virginia Chapel. The 137-year-old Gothic structure will be undergoing work to clean, restore and refinish historic surfaces throughout its interior, including wainscotting, chair rails and baseboards, doors, elements of the wood ceiling, brick arches, and its columns.
The work, to be performed by UVA Construction & Renovation Services with assistance from an architectural conservation firm to be selected this fall, also will replace lighting, update the smoke detection system, repair damaged plaster and paint the walls. The project is budgeted at $2.6 million, with funds coming from UVA’s deferred maintenance fund, Student Affairs and from private donors.
