Skylark

Skylark closes its season with a stunningly beautiful tribute to America’s fallen heroes, with music taken from times of conflict over our nation’s history.
Beginning with gritty revolutionary hymns of William Billings, and carrying through popular folk tunes and bluegrass music of the 20th and 21st centuries, Skylark’s signature programming is sure to appeal to a broad audience. The program includes many well-known hymns, including Amazing Grace and the Navy Hymn, with stunning solos and pristine ensemble work, along with more recent compositions familiar to Skylark audiences: Elder’s beautiful Elegy, Kirchener’s Angel Band, and others. Skylark’s closing set will include Take him Earth, for Cherishing written by British composer Herbert Howells to commemorate American President John. F Kennedy.
For every ticket sold, Skylark will donate a portion of proceeds to Cambridge's VFW Post 8818.
 *$10 tickets for students & music educators will be available at the door. **Online ticket sales end at 4 pm on the day of the concert, but you may always purchase tickets at the door.
