This Is My Song: A Concert in Memory of Martins Aldins Sunday, June 7th at 3:00 p.m. at Hancock Church in Lexington

A stunning afternoon of music by dozens of musicians and three area ensembles is on offer for Sunday, June 7, 2026 at 3:00 p.m. at Hancock Church in Lexington. This Is My Song: A Memorial Concert for Martins Aldins will celebrate the musical life and legacy of the longtime area musician who presented dozens of concerts for more than 25 years in Lexington and beyond. The concert is free and open to all.

The concert will feature three of the ensembles Martins “Marty” Aldins sang in or led– A Joyful Noyse Early Music Ensemble, the professional Labyrinth Choir, and the Hancock Chancel Choir. In addition, traditional Latvian folk tunes arranged by Marty will be performed by traditional Latvian musicians, as well as chamber music by some of Marty’s musical collaborators. The program will feature works by Bach, Mendelssohn, Biber, Arvo Pärt, Morten Lauridsen, and much more. The concert will range through much of the wide range of music that Marty enjoyed and participated in making: choral music, early music, chamber music, traditional Latvian music, and more. 

“Marty was a key component of our music program for over 25 years,” says Mark Morgan, Director of Music at the church, “his love of music, his voice, and his gentle spirit are sorely missed and we welcome this opportunity to celebrate his long legacy of music making.” 

The concert will be followed by a reception. Hancock Church is located at 1912 Massachusetts Ave, on the Battle Green in Lexington (MA) center. There is parking in the rear of the church, and an elevator is accessible via the Massachusetts Ave entrance.
