Musical Associates to Kick Off Starlight Tea Series

Musical Associates will kick off the 20th year of the Starlight Tea Concert Series on Saturday, August 24, at 7:00 p.m. in the Sanctuary.

The concert is entitled “Sacred Spaces.” Through music from the 15th century to the present, the concert explores how we experience different aspects of the sacred in physical, emotional, spiritual, and musical spaces.

Emery DeWitt, who founded and directed this summer chamber chorus since 2003, has handed the reins to new Artistic Director Jon Clemens. Jon has participated with various musical organizations in the Lancaster community, including being a founding member of Musical Associates. With graduate degrees in music composition and theory, he currently is board president of Allegro Lancaster. Musical Associates is now an Allegro Lancaster Ensemble.

The Starlight Tea Concert Series is supported by sponsors and offerings received at concerts. Starlight Tea brochures, with sponsor forms, are available in church literature racks. You also can view the complete 2024-25 Starlight Tea schedule on our website.

Tea and cookies will be served after the concert, during which time you may mingle with the musicians and thank them for volunteering their time and sharing their gifts. Some familiar faces from LCOB sing with the group!
