Gerre Hancock Memorial Concert
Dr. Gerre Hancock
The Sewanee Church Music Conference has named the traditional Wednesday evening concert in memory of Dr. Gerre Hancock. A renowned and beloved champion for Anglican Church music, Dr. Hancock served numerous times on the Sewanee Church Music Conference faculty. His memory lives on in the minds and hearts of not only his students, but those fortunate enough to have worked with him and to have called him friend.
Dr. Hancock, along with his lovely and talented wife, Dr. Judith Hancock, served for many years as directors of Music at St. Thomas Episcopal Church in New York City, leaving forever an indellible mark of musical excellence which continues to this day. Upon retirement from St. Thomas Church, Dr. Hancock served, until the time of his death, as Professor of Organ and Church Music at the University of Texas. A reception at the beautiful Sewanee Inn will follow the recital.
