Music & Arts at Grace
Organist and Director of Music: James RuffWe are delighted to announce that James Ruff will be our new organist and Music Director. James is a skilled organist and pianist but his gifts as a singer and vocal teacher, and his mastery of the Gaelic harp, set him apart. James teaches voice at Vassar College and has for a number of years performed in a professional choir at St Mary’s the Virgin in Times Square, a church renowned for its magnificent music. Before that James was the Music Director at Christ the King, Stone Ridge, working with the Rev. Alison Quin. His deep faith and love for the Anglican tradition in music and liturgy shapes his approach to worship. James played at Grace in July and will be back with us this Sunday, August 25. He will begin officially on September 8
