Brockport’s 2025 Winter Serenades music series begins on Sunday February 2 at 3:00 at St. Luke’s Episcopal Church, Main and State Streets. The church is a welcoming space with excellent sound and beautiful stained glass windows, some of which are by Tiffany. There is no charge and tickets are not required, thanks to the generosity of many local music lovers. Audiences are invited to attend a “Meet the Artists” reception afterward in the social hall.
Four varied music events are scheduled for February 2, February 16, March 2, and March 16. Appropriate for all ages, each will also be available for home viewing during the performances and later. See www.stlukesbrockport.org for a link.
The February 2 opening performance features two excellent violinists from the Rochester Philharmonic Orchestra, Jeanelle Thompson and James Zabawa-Martinez. They’ve planned a varied program of music “spanning generations and genres that promises something for everyone”
They say that “the versatility and brilliance of the violin will be on display through a wide variety of repertoire, from classical and opera arrangements to bluegrass and everything in between, including some surprises”. The afternoon promises to be both entertaining and informative. It will charm you.
The second event, February 16, marks the return of Michael Lasser, the popular author and award winning Fascinatin’ Rhythm radio host. Alan Jones and Connie Fredericks-Malone sing the music that he talks about from the Great American Songbook. Singing along will be tempting but not encouraged
The third event, on Sunday March 2, is Brockport’s international recording artist Chris Wilson, known around the world for his beautiful heartfelt ballads that will fill the church with emotion and warmth. See his web site for more information – www.chriswilson.us and his Facebook page, Chris Wilson Music.
The final event of the 2025 season is March 16. The Laura Dubin Trio is a popular group that performs internationally and all over Rochester, including at the annual Jazz Festival. As usual, there will be lots of surprises – the trio’s versatility is impressive.
For more information, contact the Village of Brockport at www.brockportny.org or call 637-5300. Sign up on the Get Notifications link for up-to-date announcements. March 30 is being held as a possible “reschedule” date in case of weather-necessitated cancelations.
