Mayor Linda Gorton today joined Dr. Everett McCorvey at First Presbyterian Church to preview “In One A-Chord: Lexington Sacred Music Festival,” taking place in Lexington Sept. 21 – 28, 2025.
“Our Sacred Music Festival is sure to lift you up,” Gorton said. “This celebration is a wonderful opportunity to come together, celebrate great talent, and showcase the music and spirit that makes our city so special.”
“In One A-Chord: Sacred Music Festival,” presented by CHI Saint Joseph Health, is a week-long celebration of the music that fills Lexington’s churches, chapels, sanctuaries, synagogues, mosques, and concert halls. The festival includes 25 sacred music experiences that are open to all. Events will take place at a variety of locations.
“Music has the power to unite, to inspire, and to move us,” said Dr. Everett McCorvey, executive producer of “In One A-Chord.” “This sacred music festival, the first of its kind in Lexington, creates the opportunity to celebrate local musicians, singers, arrangers and performers who make up our city’s rich and vibrant sacred musical landscape.” McCorvey serves as a member of the Mayor’s 250Lex Commission.
