SEQUIM — A singer, a pianist and an interpretive dancer will offer an unusual program for Music Live with Lunch, the midday interlude open to the public at St. Luke’s Episcopal Church on Tuesday.
Beginning at noon, soprano Karen Pritchard, pianist Lorraine Martin and dancer Kristina Holtrop will appear for the 30-minute musical presentation; then comes a hot lunch served in the parish hall. Admission is $10 for it all, with tickets available at the door of St. Luke’s, 525 N. Fifth Ave.
This is the last Music Live with Lunch before the series takes a summer break. Fittingly, the artists will perform Samuel Barber’s “Knoxville: Summer of 1915” with prose by James Agee. It’s a dreamlike remembrance of a Southern summer night, seen through the eyes of a young boy.
While Martin plays and Pritchard sings, Holtrop will add her interpretation through dance. A Sequim High School senior, Holtrop is also a student at the Aspire Academy just west of Sequim, where Naomi Alstrup is a choreographer.
Along with “Summer of 1915,” Tuesday’s concert will include renditions of Puccini’s “O Mio Babbino Caro” (“Oh, my beloved father”) and the American spiritual “He’s Got the Whole World in His Hands.”
The Music Live with Lunch series has been going on for some 25 years at St. Luke’s, with all performers donating their time. For more information, phone the church office at 360-683-4862.
