Steven C will present THANKFUL TOGETHER: SONGS OF GRATITUDE & THANKSGIVING at 3 p.m. on Friday, November 28 at the Cathedral of Saint Paul. The concert will feature music for piano, acoustic guitar, cello, mandolin, violin, and voice. Admission will be free, with contributions welcomed.
Steven C will return to the Cathedral earlier than usual this year, bringing his nine-foot Bösendorfer grand piano into the space for the program. He will be joined by guitarist Billy McLaughlin, performing together for the first time, along with Diane Tremaine on cello, Nathan Wilson on mandolin and violin, and vocalists Jillian Anderson, Kathryn Budzien, and Jack Cassidy. Musical selections will include George Winston’s “Thanksgiving,” “Colors Dance” for solo piano, a setting of “We Gather Together” for piano, cello, and violin, “Simple Gifts,” and Brandon Lake’s “Gratitude” arranged for vocal trio.
Billy McLaughlin is recognized as an internationally acclaimed guitarist, composer, and performer, and Steven C noted that the concert arrives shortly before the start of McLaughlin’s Christmastide Tour 2025. “Steven and Billy have been friends and colleagues for years, they have never once shared the stage together,” the release states.
Audiences are invited to “bring the family, find a neighbor or start your ‘Friendsgiving’ celebration” at the Cathedral performance.
