Ring in the new year with BAROQUE CONCERTI! Music From St. Mark’s presents Olmos Ensemble in a joyous program featuring our ensemble musicians as concerto soloists. Eric Gratz, Mark Teplitsky and Julian Schwarz will perform works by J.S. Bach, C.P.E. Bach and Vivaldi, accompanied by harpsichordist Ian Pritchard and strings. Admission free, seating is open.

Inspired by MBAW’s award-winning documentary “The Quilt”, this special concert brings together the San Antonio Gospel Heritage Choir (SAAACAM) and a lineup of distinguished artists to celebrate the rich legacy of African American music. As part of DreamWeek San Antonio, the performance highlights genres born from deep cultural history with soulful and powerful storytelling.

Several members of the Texas A&M Kingsville music faculty will be performing a variety of solo and ensemble pieces. Voice, piano, and clarinet will be featured: Sehee Lee, Alber Chien, Christie Cho (piano), Andrea Vos-Rochefort (clarinet), and Melinda Brou (voice).

Acclaimed Grammy Award-winning mandolinist, singer, songwriter, composer, and MacArthur Fellow recipient of the prestigious “Genius Grant”, Chris Thile is a multifaceted musical talent, described by The Guardian as "that rare being: an all-round musician,” and hailed by NPR as a "genre-defying musical genius." Thile is a founding member of the highly influential string bands Punch Brothers and Nickel Creek, and has collaborated with countless luminaries from Yo-Yo Ma to Fiona Apple to Brad Mehldau. For four years, Thile hosted public radio favorite Live from Here with Chris Thile (formerly known as A Prairie Home Companion). With his broad outlook, Thile creates a distinctly American canon and a new musical aesthetic for performers and audiences alike, giving the listener “one joyous arc, with the linear melody and vertical harmony blurring into a single web of gossamer beauty” (New York Times).

Over the last year, Thile has been touring with Nickel Creek in support of the critically acclaimed 2023 release Celebrants, and captivating audiences with a playfully ambitious biographical composition entitled ATTENTION! (a narrative song cycle for extroverted mandolinist and orchestra). Additionally, he has been focused on the production of a new musical variety show, “The Energy Curfew Music Hour.” Created with Claire Coffee and featuring Punch Brothers, season one is available on Audible and all podcasting platforms. Most recently, Chris debuted a new one-man show “The Manhattan Variations” in NYC’s Little Island about finding oneself in a little cocktail bar on the Lower East Side.

Experience the power of young voices as the Children’s Chorus of San Antonio fills the historic San Fernando Cathedral with soaring music. This free concert features three CCSA ensembles—Concert, Chamber, and Encore—bringing inspiration and beauty to the heart of downtown. Welcoming both residents and tourists, the performance celebrates San Antonio’s cultural richness in one of the city’s most iconic spaces.

Seating is limited so please reserve your tickets to this free event today!
