SUMMARY:Bach at Noon March
DESCRIPTION:Join us – virtually – for our Bach at Noon concert recorded at Central Moravian Church in downtown Bethlehem.  The Bethlehem Bach at Noon program is presented in September\, October\, November\, January\, February\, March and April; there are no Bach at Noon performances in December or May. \nDue to Covid-19 restrictions\, and following our own safety protocol\, we are unable to gather large groups of singers and instrumentalists or an audience.  Each virtual performance features vocal soloists\, along with a small ensemble of Bach Festival Orchestra members\, with an informative and lively introduction to each piece from conductor and artistic director\, Greg Funfgeld. \nWhat a beautiful note we received from this month’s Challenge Gift donor\, Marie Gardner Zoellner –\n\n“I attended every concert I could at the Central Moravian Church when taking care of elderly parents in Bethlehem. I was impressed (but subsequently not so) that it was standing room only. We have world class performers in The Bach Choir\, one should certainly not miss seeing The Choir perform live\, if you enjoy choral and Bach music.\n\n…There are NEVER enough choral works for me. Listening to such music calms my spirit when the world seems to be in chaos. At times\, the music brings me to tears. I once said to myself that ‘each note is like a raindrop from heaven\, nourishing my thirsty soul’. When listening\, I marvel at how one person can write music for so many different instruments\, and then voices\, and then when it all comes together it’s MAGIC!”\n\nWe are so grateful to music lovers like Marie\, whose generous Challenge Gift for this month’s Bach at Noon Concert means that every contribution we receive will be matched\, up to $1000!   Will you help us meet the challenge?\n\n\nGood will offerings gratefully received online!\nPrefer to give by phone? Text BNOON to 44-321. Thank you!      \nWe hope you enjoy this gift of spiritual and musical refreshment from The Bach Choir of Bethlehem! \nReminder!  Rebroadcasts of Bach at Noon concerts are on WWFM!  Tune in at 1 pm on Monday\, March 8 for the January\, 2021 concert\, featuring: \nSoloists:  Rosa Lamoreaux\, soprano; Charles Holdeman\, bassoon\nElizabeth Field\, violin |  Mary Watt\, oboe d’amore \n“Join us” as we present Bach Together\, our March Watch Party – online in your home. \nWe will update the link shown below on March 9.
