Celebrate Epiphany enveloped by the festive sounds of trumpet, lur, soprano, organ, and piano and surrounded by holiday decorations. The Nordic Chamber Music 2023 series opens the season, like the arrival of the travelling Magi, exploring the supernatural and divinity of music filled with unlimited possibilities for the future. Joan Paddock and Debra Huddleston will fill the sanctuary with brilliant sounds with trumpet, a traditional Norwegian lur, piano, and organ and will be joined for part of the program by Nordic song and chamber music specialist and soprano, Laura Loge.

Featuring:
Joan Paddock, trumpet & lur
Laura Loge, soprano
Debra Huddleston, piano & organ
