Our Concert Series continues on Sunday, February 26, 2023 at 7 p.m. with a very special and rare performance!  Join us for an evening of harpsichord music by Bach, Boismortier, Carter, and Couperin. Dr. William Jean Randall will be playing a 2018 Franco Flemish Double (two keyboards) Harpsichord built by Knight Vernon, renowned harpsichord maker of North Branch, Michigan. Following the concert, you will have an opportunity to see the instrument up close.
     Dr. Randall began his career as a church musician at the age of 14, playing the organ as a substitute at various churches on the east-side of Detroit.  After earning a bachelor’s degree in Vocal Music Education and Organ Performance at Wayne State University, he began a 14-year ministry at First United Methodist Church in St. Clair Shores. In 1995, he entered the graduate program in Sacred Music at the University of Michigan and, at the same time, became the Associate Minister of Music at First Presbyterian Church in Royal Oak.  In 1997, he moved to Utica United Methodist Church as the Director of Music and Worship Arts.  He earned his Doctorate in Sacred Music in the spring of 2000.
