Bach Christmas Concert
"Bach, Haydn and Mendelssohn"

Dec. 13, 4 p.m.
First Presbyterian Church of Bethlehem - 2344 Center St., Bethlehem, PA

At the close of a year celebrating the 200th anniversaries of Haydn’s death and Mendelssohn’s birth, this festive Bach Christmas Concert features music by these two great composers, including Haydn’s “Saint Nicholas Mass,” which has been described as “a spellbinding piece that can melt the hardest of hearts.” There is a pre-concert organ recital by Thomas Goeman at 3:30 p.m. At the end of the program, guests are invited to join in singing traditional carols.
