Cape Ann Symphony dedicates upcoming Moods of the Sea concert to F/V Lily Jean crew and those left bereft
Sunday Feb 8th, 2026. 3pm
Our hearts are with the families and the entire Gloucester community as we mourn the loss of the Lily Jean. The Cape Ann Symphony stands in shared grief with our neighbors during this incredibly difficult time. To honor those we have lost and the enduring spirit of all whose livelihoods are tied to the ocean, we will begin Sunday’s concert — a program already scheduled and inspired by everyone who carries on our community’s timeless connection to the sea– with a moment of silence.
We dedicate the afternoon’s music, poetry, and song to the families of the Lily Jean
Cape Ann Symphony
From Heidi Dallin, Cape Ann Symphony Publicist:
“You can expect an eclectic afternoon of music,” says Barbara Cox, Director of Marketing on the CAS Board, ”from beautiful vocals to soaring strings to joyful folk dances! We are excited to spotlight not only our CAS String players but also CAS Chorus member and Gloucester resident baritone John Fortado; veteran Boston Mezzo Soprano Alexandra Dietrich and cellist Taylor Stobinski all of whom make their Musicians Unleashed debut in Moods of the Sea.“
The Cape Ann Symphony’s Musicians Unleashed Concerts are intimate chamber concerts performed by members of the Cape Ann Symphony and guest artists. They have become a popular series with an enthusiastic audience. This concert will combine music, literature and poetry performed by five string players, 2 vocalists and a poetry reader.
The program includes English poet John Masefield’s Sea Fever about longing for the freedom of life on the open sea set to music by John Ireland; Salina Fisher’s Mata Au; Edward Elgar’s Sea Pictures, Op. 37; Gustav Holst’s St. Paul’s Suite, Op. 29; and Anton Dvořak’s String Quintet No. 2 in G Major, Op. 77, 2nd Movement, written for the unusual combination of string quartet plus double bass and in the lively joyful style of folk dance.
The music captures the stylistic choices of these works, with undercurrents and rippling chords.
The musicians in the quintet are Cape Ann Symphony Principal Bass Richey Tally, CAS Violinists Margaret Cerjan and Oliver Klein, CAS Violist Brandon White and Cellist Taylor Stobinski.
Vocalists performing in Moods of the Sea will be CAS Chorus member John Fortado and mezzo soprano Alexandra Dietrich.

On Thursday August 28 and Friday, August 29th at 7:00pm, former principal dancer from the renowned Paul Taylor Dance Company, Annmaria Mazzini, performs in a show she curated with dancers and musicians working in a collaborative manner.

The Sound of Memory  Jennifer Mabus (dancer) and Brittany Breitman Nearing (sound bowls) rehearsing at Windhover |
| This evening presents a choreographic and musical meditation about the passage of time, caregiving, loss, fragility, and moving through life with a sense of awe and wonder. Renowned for its capacity to provoke thought and generate healing, “The Sound of Memory” explores questions of where in the body memory resides, what haunts us, and what sustains us. Tickets are available on the Windhover website or by using the buttons below. Distinguished bios of the artists can be found on the Windhover website: www.windhover.org |
| Then on Saturday, August 30, please join us in a musical bash when two talented music groups collaborate for an evening under the tent. Opening the evening at 6:30pm will be guitarist Brendan Evans and the Night Owls which brings together the music talents of guitarist Brendan Evans, vocalist Ben Blanchard and Daniel Palmer, a songwriter turned mystery/suspense novelist. The group performs mostly original material blending classical guitar with three-part harmonies to create a unique sound for their indie-folk infused songs. Then at 7:30pm, the Clements Brothers & Good Company perform. This is an exciting chance to see the local and beloved (and identical twins) Charles and George Clements with their full national touring band who will perform together under the tent. The Clements Brothers, who live here on Cape Ann, have been playing and writing music together for as long as they can remember. With roots in rock, bluegrass, jazz, and classical influences, George (on guitar) and Charles (on bass) aim to capture their singer-songwriter sensibilities in a unique blended voice, at once enthralling and intimate, groovy and serene.

This performance also brings in guest artists Sarah Slifer Swift, dancer and director of Movement Arts in Gloucester ( MAGMA), plus with the work of visual artist Derick Melander, whose large-scale sculptures made from secondhand clothing, confront the intersection between global consumerism and our intimate relationship with what we wear.

Cape Ann Animal Aid Pet of the Week
Meet Ozzie, the ultimate happy-go-lucky pup with a zest for life and a heart full of love! This cheerful, people-loving dog thrives on human companionship and is always ready to brighten your day with his joyful spirit. While the busy kennel environment isn’t his favorite, Ozzie is excited to meet you by appointment and can’t wait to make a lasting connection. Ozzie dreams of fun-filled car rides, outdoor adventures, and lots of quality time with his future family. He’s a smart and loyal companion who’s eager to share his enthusiasm and become your new best friend. As a long-term resident of the shelter, Ozzie is now part of the extended stay club, which means his adoption fee has been reduced to help him find his forever home sooner. He’s ready to bring unwavering loyalty, endless cuddles, and a lifetime of joy to the right family.
