On October 28, 2023, Grace Chorale of Brooklyn performed the “Eerie Happenings” concert with the Brooklyn Chamber Orchestra at St. Ann’s church in Brooklyn Heights.

Artistic Director Phil Nuzzo led the GCB and BCO in a program featuring the music of Mendelssohn, Verdi, Mozart, Liszt, and the ever-popular Sorcerer’s Apprentice by Dukas. The evening was hosted by pianist Konstantin Soukhovetski, who took us to the dens of the witches, and to the edge of hell itself. He also performed the signature piece, Totentanz by Franz Liszt.
