Organ Concert At Trinity

Organist George Swope will perform an organ concert in the Trinity Episcopal Church sanctuary, 36 Main Street, on Friday, January 16, at 8 pm, as part of Music @ Trinity’s 2008-09 Concert Series. The concert program will feature works by Boehm, Bach, Reger, Mendelssohn, Reinberger, and Franck, and will run about 45 minutes without intermission.

There will be a wine and cheese reception to follow. A freewill offering will be accepted at the door.

This concert, on Trinity’s Austin pipe organ, will be part of the Fridays @ Trinity offerings featuring a number of programs of quality classical music in Newtown on Friday evenings. Music @ Trinity seeks to offer fine music for the enjoyment of the community at large in the acoustically excellent sanctuary of the church.
