Virutoso Series Concert: Joel Bacon, Organ

November 30, 2015 @ 7:30 pm – 9:00 pm – The program features Bach’s Clavierübung III – a monument of organ music. Hymn preludes in various styles are then bookended by the glorious Prelude and Fugue in E-flat Major. As one of Bach’s few works published in his lifetime, it was certainly a collection dear to the composer’s heart.
