Forde Concert Series

Great Music at Christ Church

Christ Church has a long history of bringing great music to the Riverdale Community.  Our series is named in honor of our late and distinguished parishioners, Dr. Kenneth and Kay Forde.  After COVID subsided, the Forde Concert Series resumed in May 2023.  We have offered an exciting variety of well-attended performances from classical to jazz, flamenco to African American song, story and drumming followed by sumptuous receptions.

Our sponsors' generous gifts made the 2025 concert season a success.  The second concert of our 2026 season on May 17th at 3 p.m., A Band Called Honalee, is a modern-day folk trio inspired by the music and legacy of Peter, Paul and Mary.  Musically accomplished, interactive and energetic, their shows allow audiences to experience this timeless music live on stage once again.

We hope you will consider becoming a sponsor or renewing your sponsorship.  These gifts are essential to carrying forward the Forde Concert Committee’s mission of offering high-quality music to our community.  Your donation will be recognized in our concert programs.  We offer the following levels:    Click here to support us!
