ARTEK director Gwendolyn Toth presents a concert of music from her latest CD, The Arp Schnitger Organ in Eenum. A tiny village in the northeast Netherlands, Eenum boasts one of the surviving examples of the great organ-building genius Arp Schnitger, a small one-manual meantone organ dating from 1704. Ms. Toth will perform selections by Jan Pieterszoon Sweelinck, Heinrich Scheidemann, and others on Holy Trinity's outstanding baroque organ by Paul Fritts, assisted by tenor Philip Anderson singing related songs and airs. CDs will be available for purchase.
The concert is part of the New York Early Music Celebration 2017.
Tickets: VIP Balcony seating (with up close view of the artists) $40 regular, $30 seniors. Floor seating $20 regular, $15 seniors.
