Concert with a Cause: The Suspicious Cheese Lords February 10, 2008

The Suspicious Cheese Lords is a male a cappella ensemble that performs concerts and provides church service music for the Washington, D.C., metropolitan area. Although specializing in music of the Middle Ages and the Renaissance, their repertoire ranges from Gregorian chant to original compositions. Their name plays on the title of a motet by Thomas Tallis, Suscipe queso Domine (“Accept, Lord, I ask”). “Suscipe” morphs into “Suspicious,” “quaeso” is close to the Spanish word for “cheese” and “Domine” is Latin for “Lord.”

Free admission. A voluntary offering will be received to benefit the health, literacy and vocational education projects of the St. Thomas Church,in Islamabad Pakistan.
