The third and final concert in a series of chamber music concerts to benefit the Episcopal Church of St. Mary-in-the-Highlands, originally scheduled for June 14, has been postponed to Sept. 20, due to a musician’s family emergency.

The program will feature music for solo stringed instruments and trio selections by Johann Sebastian Bach performed by Krista Bennion Feeney, violin, Rachel Evans, viola, and bassist John Feeney.

This program includes Bach’s Partita in D Minor for solo violin, which includes his beloved Chaconne, the exuberant G Major cello suite rarely heard in concert on viola, as well as trios for violin, viola and bass.
