September 23 Alice Parker 3:00 pm
Composer, conductor, and long-time collaborator with Robert Shaw,

“What is missing from her mile-long list of accomplishments and duties
is a description of her charisma in causing music to happen. Her understanding
of the unaccompanied vocal line has caused some of the most enchanting music ever heard...
There is no one who is not a singer when she leads.” –GIA Quarterly
*Assisting and performing:
University Singers of Augusta State University
The Church of the Good Shepherd Choir
The Saint John Choir
*A choral master class with Ms. Parker and these choirs will be held on

February 24 Nathan Laube, concert organist 3:00 pm
“Flawless technique made this music sound perfect on the organ, and we went out
into the night, grateful for a musician who at the tender age of twenty-three can play
to this astounding standard, at the same time without a trace of shallowness or
overwrought showmanship. Don’t miss him the next time he’s in town!”
– The Boston Musical Intelligencer
