Pentecost Concert – June 5
June 5, 2022 @ 4:00 pm - 5:00 pm
On Sunday, June 5th, at 4 pm, Little Fork Episcopal Church is hosting a Pentecost Concert. This concert is being held as a dedication of their grand piano, and a rededication of their refurbished organ.
We will livestream the concert, go to www.littleforkchurch.org and it will be on the front page of the website and Facebook.
Music from classical to jazz, sacred to secular, will be performed. The concert will feature selections of a diverse pool – more traditional selections such as Johann Sebastian Bach’s Prelude and Fugue in B Flat Major, Cesar Franck’s Veni Creator Spiritus contrast with more modern selections like Steve Reich’s Clapping Music. On the jazz side, numbers by Charles Mingus, Thelonious Monk, and Dizzy Gillespie will be played by a 3-piece jazz unit.
Performers from the church congregation, as well as the greater Rixeyville community will be featured: Lori Roddy, David Bureli, David Fatula, Abby Miles, Katie Brant and Colette Semon. Finally, the concert will feature a new piece by Ben Grove, music director of Little Fork Episcopal Church, which takes inspiration from traditional chant music of Pentecost, as well as the music of church bell ringing.
The concert is free and open to the public!
