The Music Corner

The first snow of the winter season has arrived and the Annual Meeting has already taken place, so we are well on our way to Lent. The liturgy will change as we enter our most solemn season, and the music that the choir is already preparing will reflect that. We hope that, as always, the choir anthems add to your reflection as you commence your Lenten journey beginning on Ash Wednesday, February 22nd. Under Lea Bortner’s direction, the church school children are already learning their parts for a Palm Sunday anthem and the Easter Vigil as well.
Our concert series is looking ahead with great anticipation to Sunday, April 15 when renowned organist Canon Mark Laubach will thrill our audience with his presentation. Already planned is the Liszt "Fantasy and Fugue on B-A-C-H" and the great "St. Anne" Prelude and Fugue by J.S. Bach. Please see the March TOPICS for the flyer and more details. This concert will make your day despite paying taxes! We anticipate a large audience for this event, so I am already calling upon our culinary artists to think about preparing your usual delectable treats. Our receptions are as well known as our outstanding concerts!
