Beautiful Baroque Benefit Concert Print

 Exciting things are afoot for the St.Andrew's Bach Society!   Thanks to amazing attendence during 2008, we have outgrown our concert venue at St. Andrew's Episcopal Church and moved all of our 2009 Summer Concert Series to Grace St. Paul's Episcopal Church (2331 E. Adams).  This move, along with a need to better serve our audience and adequately compensate our musicians, is stretching our budget.  We are also looking to the future and believe that the Summer Concert Series is a vital component to Tucson's cultural life, especially during the summer months.  In order to start securing our future,  we are presenting our  first "Beautiful Baroque" Benefit Concert.   Money raised will help support our musicians, allow us to expand future concert offerings and educational activities, and strengthen our ability to better serve our audience.  (FYI:  Attend and find out what we are planning for the 2010 Bach Lives Project -it's a big one...)

Join us on May 16, 2009 (5:00 PM) at Grace St. Paul's Episcopal Church (2331 E. Adams St.) for this wonderful program featuring music by Bach, Marais, Telemann, and Zelenka performed by oboist and Artistic Director Dr. Lindabeth Binkley, soprano Kathryn Mueller, violinist Steven Moeckel, cellist Mark Votapek, bassoonist Rebecca Cain and harpsichordist Paula Fan.  It is a "Dream Team" of musicians, all of whom share a special affinity for Baroque music.  This will be a musical event you will not want to miss!
