"Two Frenchies, four hands" a piano recital by Edward Tipton and Andrew Kimsey!
Saturday, May 17, 2025, 1700 - 1830
The Friends of the Music at St. Mark's Episcopal Church, New Canaan, CT, proudly presents: "Two Frenchies, four hands" a piano recital by Edward Tipton and Andrew Kimsey. Saturday May 17th, 2025, at 5:00 PM, St. Mark's Episcopal Church, 111 Oenoke Ridge, New Canaan, CT.
Much of the music coming from France, from the mid-19th century until the early 20th, has an unmistakable "French" sound - rich in tone color, sometimes ambiguous in harmony, and evocative of a certain mood or atmosphere. This recital features piano compositions of four prominent composers: Ravel, Faure, Debussy, and Lili Boulanger, including two works for piano four hands: Ravel's Ma mere l'Oye (the "Mother Goose" suite), and Faure's Dolly Suite for piano. Also included are solo works by Debussy (Estampes), Lili Boulanger (Prelude in D-flat) and Faure (Nocturne No. 6, in D-flat). Join us for a tonal voyage to Impressionist France!
Pianist Andrew Kimsey has produced a variety of work for piano, choral, vocal, electronic music, and other entertainment genres, as well as having written and produced his own recordings. His published choral service setting of the Magnificat and Nunc dimittis (Paraclete Press Inc.), premiered at Southwark Cathedral, London, in 2005 by Atlanta's Peachtree Road United Methodist Choir. Other notable performances of the same work include the Saint Thomas Choir of Men and Boys in New York City.
Pianist, organist, and conductor "Ned" Tipton is Director of Music Ministries at St. Mark's, and came to New Canaan after seven years at St. John's Cathedral, Los Angeles; preceded by twenty-one years as Director of Music at the American Cathedral in Paris. Mr. Tipton has performed and conducted throughout the U.S. and Europe.
The event is followed by a light reception.
General tickets $30, Students $10 ($35 and $15 day of the event)
