John Rutter’s Requiem
Sunday, November 2, 10:00AM
Free and open to the public
Join us for Rutter’s 1985 choral work that blends parts of the traditional Latin Requiem Mass with English texts from the Book of Common Prayer and Psalms. Scored for soprano, mixed choir, and chamber ensemble, it is one of Rutter’s most beloved pieces, known for its contrasting mood shifts between solemnity and hope.
Andrew McKnight & Beyond Borders
Sunday, November 30, 4:00 PM
Tickets: $15
Award-winning singer/songwriter Andrew McKnight’s music traverses influences from Appalachia, tasteful slide and jazzy blues, feisty anthems, rustic folk, and guitar-driven rock. Featuring founding Nitty Gritty Dirt Band member Les Thompson, Les’ wife Stephanie Thompson, and Lisa Taylor, Andrew McKnight & Beyond Borders blends his charming tenor voice and acoustic and electric guitars with banjo, upright bass, drums, and percussion. The band has delighted concert and festival audiences since their collective debut at the John F. Kennedy Center in Washington (March 2008) as well as on their acclaimed 2012 CD/DVD set One Virginia Night.
Valuing the artistry of taut arrangements over flashy instrumental jams, they have earned acclaim for their exquisite 3- and 4-part vocal harmonies as well as the unusual and constantly changing combinations of instruments. Their eclectic arrangements of Andrew’s award-winning songs fuse oldtime influences, roots rock sounds, rich vocal harmonies, and an assimilation of many stylistic elements that truly stretch “beyond Appalachian, beyond blues, beyond folk”.
