Dear Friends,

We are thrilled to welcome you to the 2021-2022 season of the Grace Church Concert Series—our 22nd anniversary season! The season begins in October with vocal fireworks provided by operatic singers Camille Zamora and Monica Yunus. We welcome the internationally-acclaimed British ensemble The King’s Singers in February. Finally, we close the season in April with a performance by The

Amit Peled Cello Gang. All performances will take place in the church, and will be followed by an artists’ reception in the Parish Hall. All of our events will follow the COVID-19 safety protocols set forth by the Episcopal Diocese of Virginia, including wearing masks indoors. We wish to express our deep gratitude to those participating in our Grace Church Angels program. Their support allows us to bring world-class performers to our community at a reasonable price for everyone. More information about the Grace Church Angels program and ticket sales can be found on pages 10, 12 and 13 of this brochure, and online at gracetheplains.org. On behalf of the Grace Church Concert Series Committee and our generous volunteers, we look forward to seeing you this season! Sincerely,

Jason Farris, Artistic Director; Lena Scott Lundh & Gertraud Hechl, Co-Chairs Emeritae

SUNDAY, MAY 3 from 5:00-6:30 pm (doors open at 4:30)
The Suspicious Cheese Lords in Concert
For thirty years, the Suspicious Cheese Lords have specialized in Renaissance choral music, seeking out works which may be unknown even to audiences familiar with the genre. This concert will feature works by more well-known European composers such as Giovanni Pierluigi da Palestrina, but also rarely-heard gems by the decidedly less familiar Elzéar Genet, Ludwig Senfl, and Jean Mouton. The program will be rounded out with a selection of both secular and more modern pieces, demonstrating the continued appeal of unaccompanied human voices.
