The Mid Manhattan Performing Arts Foundation Presents Easter Oratorio and Magnificat, 4/24

Easter Oratorio and Magificat, the latest concert presented by The Mid Manhattan Performing Arts Foundation (MMPAF), will fill the sacred space of St. Bartholomew's Church on Park Avenue on Tuesday April 24th, with two of the Bach's most festive works composed while he was Kantor of the Thomaskirche in Leipzig. Written for the high feast days of Easter and Christmas, both works are scored for choir and soloists and instrumental accompaniment. St. Bart's own professional choir will be accompanied by an elaborate orchestra including trumpets and tympani, emphasizing the celebratory nature of these important days in the Church calendar.

The two-hour concert on Tuesday, April 24 will begin at 7:30 p.m. at St. Bart's, 325 Park Avenue at 51st Street and is part of the "Great Music at St. Bart's" series. The "Great Music" series is presented by the MMPAF, an independent 501(c)(3) corporation established to cultivate, promote, sponsor and develop the understanding and love of the performing arts as presented at St. Bartholomew's Church.
