In a rare and remarkable collaboration, GRAMMY®-nominated sarodist Alam Khan — son of the legendary Ali Akbar Khan — joins forces with one of South Africa’s most innovative guitarists, Derek Gripper. Together, Alam and Derek explore the heights of spontaneous creation, re-imagining great African songs and Indian melodies in a virtuosic meeting of plucked strings within Grace Farms’ light-filled and fully glass-enclosed performance hall within the River building.

Alam and Derek focus on their respective immersions in deep classical traditions: Alam brings a long apprenticeship under his father, mastering the infinite art of raga improvisation within the Indian classical tradition, Derek, originally trained in European classical and early string music, has spent years translating the complex language of the West African kora to the guitar.

GRAMMY®-winning singer and songwriter Aoife O’Donovan brings her singular voice to an intimate afternoon that moves freely between solitude and conversation — between the quiet power of a single voice and the warmth of strings intertwined.

Born from an Irish-American musical sensibility that stretches from the hills of Appalachia to the Celtic songs of her summers in Ireland, O’Donovan has earned her place as one of the most captivating storytellers in American folk music. Drawing from her celebrated catalog — including her acclaimed albums Age of Apathy, In the Magic Hour, and All My Friends — she performs a set of songs that are tender, searching, and quietly enchanting.

Joining her are two of contemporary classical music’s most imaginative voices: cellist Eric Jacobsen and violinist Colin Jacobsen, brothers whose careers have been defined by a restless curiosity that carries them far beyond genre. The Jacobsens bring with them a rare combination of classical rigor and an adventurer’s ear — qualities that make them natural companions for O’Donovan’s own genre-defying art.

Concert pianist Elizabeth Joy Roe (half of the the groundbreaking Anderson & Roe Piano Duo, whose music videos have been viewed by millions on YouTube) and GRAMMY®-winning Canadian cellist and Grace Farms Artist-in-Residence Arlen Hlusko present a piano and cello duo spring recital in the Grace Farms Sanctuary immersed in budding landscape and transpiring as the sun sets.

Arlen and Elizabeth explore the landscape of music across genres and borders in the 1940s, and specifically how many of those sounds influenced Francis Poulenc’s spritely, eclectic, gorgeous Sonate pour violoncelle et piano, which serves as the centerpiece of this program.

This marks Hlukso’s final recital as Grace Farms Artist-in-Residence, and we toast to two remarkable seasons of curation, collaboration, performance and on-stage excellence.

Experience a Grace Farms Lecture by artist, scholar and advocate Dr. Hannah Rose Thomas with a performance by a chamber ensemble of the London Philharmonic Orchestra.

Dr. Hannah Rose Thomas has established a portrait painting practice, harnessing art as a tool for advocacy. Her work has received critical acclaim, with exhibitions in prestigious places, including Buckingham Palace, the UK Houses of Parliament and the Saatchi Gallery. Through her portfolio of portrait paintings, she seeks to elevate the voices of the marginalized and prescribe dignity to the persecuted and forcibly displaced. To do so, Thomas incorporates early Renaissance and iconography painting techniques into her work.

Central to Thomas’s practice is an understanding of portraiture as an act of gifting – an offering of attention, dignity, and presence that honors the irreducible humanity of each individual.  Her work also reflects a deep ethic of hospitality, creating space for encounter, listening, and relational exchange between artist, subject, and viewer.

A chamber ensemble of the London Philharmonic Orchestra will perform a program responding both to Thomas’s work and to Grace Farms.

“Five years ago, we asked a simple but urgent question: what if the buildings we design and inhabit were built with the full dignity of every person who harvests, mines, and processes the materials that make them possible? Today, that question is a global movement. This is our moment. The construction industry is now positioned to become a global leader in supply chain transparency and human rights.”
