On June 1, a group of area singers from Dallas including members of Third Church and our organist – Chris Crook will perform the first half of a concert in London’s prestigious Cadogan Hall.

Before they depart, they wanted to share this beautiful music with friends and family.  Please consider supporting them with your presence on Monday, May 20 at 7:30 p.m. at Third Church of Christ, Scientist – 4419 Oak Lawn Avenue. This preview concert will be less than an hour in length.  You will hear a 30-minute work titled “For a Breath of Ecstasy”—a collection of poems by Pulitzer Prize-winning American poet Sara Teasdale set to music by Michael Trotta. We will also sing three anthems in Hebrew from living Jewish composers. Cantor Vicky Glikin of Temple Emanu-El will be our soloist. There is no admission fee. Please join us!

Come one, come all! It’s an annual Christmas tradition at Third Church Dallas and a chance to hear our new Opus 3924 organ!
