"We had a fantastic tour of the USA and Canada and to much acclaim. It was a great success! The venues that you had arranged for us to have concerts in i.e. George Washington Memorial Hall and Strathmore were of the highest quality, especially the latter and it was a pleasure performing there!"

Washington National Cathedral Since the celebrated moment in 1907 when workmen laid the foundation stone of Washington National Cathedral, the majestic structure has played a vital role in our nation's history. The Cathedral has long served as a grand spiritual center where Americans unite to worship and pray, mourn the passing of world leaders, and confront the pressing moral and social issues of the day. Performances of the historic evensong and prelude traditions are highly sought after in this acoustically spectacular venue. | |

New York Avenue Presbyterian Church The New York Avenue Presbyterian Church (NYAPC) embodies a rich history built on the very foundations of the Reformed tradition in this country. The powerful story of these two early congregations and the merged church that welcomed President Abraham Lincoln and his family as pew holders on the first Sunday following his inauguration in March 1861-just six months after the dedication of the newly constructed church-is a story fully intertwined with the history of our denomination, the capital city, and this country. The church has a very active parish choir and offers an wonderfully acoustic performance space. | |

George Washington Masonic Memorial This magnificent structure is privately funded through the grateful contributions of Freemasons and others, and remains open to the public, seven days a week. The George Washington Masonic Memorial is more than a colossal memorial and museum. It is a tourist attraction and destination; research center and library; community center; performing arts center and concert hall. A scene from the 2007 mystery-adventure film National Treasure: Book of Secrets was filmed in the Memorial Theater. The stage in the theater was a stand-in for a lecture hall. An additional scene was filmed in the Memorial Hall. The memorial also figured briefly in author Dan Brown's 2009 best-selling novel, The Lost Symbol. | |
