While you are home watching the snow, please MARK your calendars for the upcoming BACH Festival. All our choirs (and those of Overbrook Presbyterian and St. Paul's Lutheran) have been working hard in preparation for this big event.
DRESS REHEARSAL -
SAT, MARCH 20, 2:00 p.m.(children should be done by 3:15)at St. Paul's Lutheran Church
BACH FESTIVAL SERVICE -
SUN, MARCH 21, 4:00 p.m.(service should be done by 5:15)at St. Paul's Lutheran Church
The program will mark the 325th anniversary of J.S. Bach, one of the most revered composers of all time, and one of the most influential in church music (he has been called "the fifth evangelist," e.g. Matthew, Mark, Luke, John, JSB).
The children are doing well with all the music, especially "Wir eilen mit schwachen." To listen to this one, I recommend the following site:
(our choirs will sing the first 2:00 and the recap, then soloists will sing the middle section).
