English Definitions:
Evening Prayer, evensong (noun)
(Anglican Church) a daily evening service with prayers prescribed in the Book of Common Prayer
Evening Prayer
Evening Prayer is a liturgy in use in the Anglican Communion and celebrated in the late afternoon or evening. It is also commonly known as Evensong, especially when the office is rendered chorally. It is roughly the equivalent of Vespers in the Roman Catholic Church and the Lutheran churches, although it was originally formed by combining the monastic offices of Vespers and Compline. Although many churches now take their services from Common Worship or other modern prayer books, if a church has a choir, Choral Evensong from the Book of Common Prayer often remains in use because of the greater musical provision. Evening Prayer, like Morning Prayer and in contrast to the Eucharist, may be led by a layperson, and is recited by some devout Anglicans daily in private.
