Alexandria, VA – Historic Christ Church in Old Town is pleased to announce Concerts at Christ Church, a monthly noontime concert series. This brand-new series offers a respite of beautiful music to begin the work week on the second Monday of October, November, December, March, April, and May at 12:15 pm.

There is no admission for these concerts, though we hope audience members will support the series with a goodwill donation of any amount (suggested amount: $10).

These 45-minute programs include professional solo performers and chamber musicians in DC, Maryland, and Northern Virginia. Featured on the inaugural season are cellist Wade Davis, organist Midori Ataka, musicians from DC Singer Collective, tenor John Logan Wood & pianist Carter Sligh, soprano Margot Rood & mezzo-soprano Kristen Dubenion-Smith, and classical guitarist Maya Lončar. We hope you will join us for this exciting new musical endeavor!
