Free Concert: Peter and Will Anderson with Adam Moezinia

by Leave a Comment

Our Concert Series kicks off this Sunday, September 21 at 3 pm with jazz musicians Peter and Will Anderson performing an afternoon of music by Gershwin accompanied by guitarist Adam Moezinia.

Fresh off recent performances at Carnegie Hall and The Kennedy Center, woodwind virtuosos and identical twins Peter and Will Anderson present a carefully selected program of classic American melodies. The Andersons live and breathe the music of the 1930s and ‘40s – reviving tunes of the past with an energy and authenticity seldom heard today. Their program of music from the golden age includes such vintage gems as “Rhapsody in Blue,” hard-hitting swing classic “Sing, Sing, Sing,” and Broadway classic “My Favorite Things.” The Andersons are passionate about the great music from a century ago, including classics from Cole Porter, Irving Berlin, and George Gershwin. Graduates of the Juilliard School, Anderson’s have recently performed on Garrison Keillor’s Prairie Home Companion and on HBO’s Boardwalk Empire soundtrack.

Please visit their website for more information: www.PeterAndWillAnderson.com

The concert is free of charge, with donations accepted at the door. These events are a way for us to connect with the wider community, celebrate the Divine expressed through human creativity, and share our sacred and acoustically amazing nave. Invite a friend to church to hear some beautiful music in our beautiful space.
