Music at St. Alban's

Concert series at St. Alban's Episcopal Church in Davidson, NC. Our Sunday afternoon concerts, held in the warm and inviting environment of Davidson's St.

Alban's Church, provide our audience members the opportunity to enjoy a wide array of high level chamber music concerts. Our concerts feature musicians from near and far, in classical, jazz, and other genres. We invite you to help support emerging artists by arriving early to hear pre-concert performances by young, talented musicians. We also encourage you to stay after the concerts for our "meet the artist" receptions, during which you can engage with the performers. Continued support from donors like you makes it possible for this extraordinary musical program to offer diverse, world-class performances to our communities. We look forward to creating memorable music-filled afternoons with you and your families. See you at the concerts!

Our new season got off to a spectacular start yesterday! Pre-concert music was played by the very talented young flutist Noah Hutto, accompanied at the piano by his teacher Shirley Gilpin. The audience was captivated by his stage presence and musical assurance. Then our featured ensemble, the Ciompi Quartet from Duke University, played a breathtakingly beautiful concert which concluded with Felix Mendelssohn's landmark String Octet, for which they were joined by the Larkspur Quartet, four outstanding young professionals who had been their students at Duke. The chemistry of these eight musicians was clear to the audience, and the technical brilliance and depth of emotion brought the audience to their feet. Thanks to all the musicians, and to all of you who attended the concert! A recording of this concert will be coming soon to M@SA's YouTube channel, www.youtube.com@masa_concerts." rel="ugc" target="_blank">https://www.youtube.com@masa_concerts.

Please join Music at St. Albans on Sunday, May 17 at 3:00 pm as we close out a record-breaking season! We're delighted to welcome accomplished jazz pianist Noel Freidline and vocalist Maria Howell as they live it up with Ella Fitzgerald and some Motown greats.

Noel Freidline and Maria Howell explore and re-interpret some of the best music of the last 80 years. Approaching the music from “the left,” Noel and Maria offer listeners something they have heard, but that they have never heard before. Combine this fresh musical approach with a rapport and witty banter and you have Noel and Maria in their element.

Come early for a spotlight conversation with the artists, hosted by DavidsonLearns at 2:00 pm, and stay after for a meet-the-artists reception!
