When Richard Gray invited me to give a recital, I decided this would be an opportunity to benefit the Organ Fund, support the ongoing care of the instrument, and help lay the groundwork for a future major organ project. I am looking forward very much to giving an organ concert to benefit the Organ Fund at St. John’s on Friday, January 23 at 7pm.

Katie Boardman is in her second year with us as a soprano staff singer.

St. John’s has hosted the Artaria Chamber Music School (ACMS) from its inception in 2002. Founded and operated by members of the Artaria String Quartet, the school teaches students the techniques and artistry needed to interpret important Classical, Romantic, and Modern Era chamber music masterpieces.

This program year, each liturgical season will carry a certain theme and seasonal arch. During the Fall through November 20, our Compline services’ theme will be Night, Light, Beginning.
