2009–2010 Recital Series


Now in its fifth season, the St. Mark's Recital Series has quickly become one of Durango's not-to-be-missed musical series. "One of Durango's top-ten musical events" writes Judith Reynolds in the Durango Telegraph, about Gemma Kavanagh's 2006 recital on the St. Mark's Recital Series. All recitals will be held in the historic sanctuary of St. Mark's Church. Because seating is limited and some recitals have sold out, advanced ticket purchase is recommended.

As our way of saying "thank you," season subscribers receive a 20% discount the night of the recital at Cyprus Cafe, 725 E. 2nd Ave.

Mann/Hagler Annual
Christmas Recital


It's a tradition that began nearly 25 years ago. When Rochelle Mann moved to Farmington from Indiana in the mid-'80s, she stumbled upon organist Scott Hagler, who played and directed choirs at First Presbyterian Church. The two immediately began performing together as the Arioso Duo. Scott had been performing Christmas recitals for the community, and Shelley joined right in. Now the tradition continues for the third year in Durango at St. Mark's Episcopal Church on Sunday, December 13, 2009 at 2:00 p.m. The public is invited, and a free-will offering is accepted.
