For more than 30 years, the FUMC Vesper Concert Series has presented the finest musicians from around the world and from our own community.  Performers have included Boston Brass, David Briggs, Chanticleer, Clare College Choir, Gerre Hancock, FUMC Choirs, Gloriae Dei Cantores, Kiev Symphony Orchestra and Chorus, The Kings Singers, Robert MacDonald, New Zealand, National Youth Choir, John Rutter, John Scott, St. Thomas Choir NYC, Frederick Swann, Texas Boys Choir, Vienna Boys Choir, and Sir David Willcocks.  All events in our Vesper Concert Series are offered with free admission, as a ministry to the people of Lubbock and the South Plains.  We hope that those who come to our concerts will find their hearts and souls enriched as they enjoy the finest sacred and classical music in the beauty of our FUMC Sanctuary, and that they will experience God, revealed to us through that music.

All of this is made possible by the generous contributions of the FUMC Friends of Music
