This past Christmas, ARTEK - arguably the city's premier early music ensemble - invited our community for a sacred, sold-out Night Out. Well they're back for more, and so are we!

On March 9th at 8pm, we'll gather in the Holy Trinity Church on Central Park West - over a century old and a splendid gem of this Greatest City - to once again make space for the sacred with another ARTEK Night Out.

This time, the focus will be on the Baroque musical culture of Northern Germany - with the work of Nicolaus Bruhns, Dieterich Buxtehude - a great genius whom J.S. Bach famously walked 250 miles to study with, and old J.S. himself, because however much there may be, the world always needs more Bach.

It'll be an evening of vocal works, chamber works, and organ works - blown through the Holy Trinity Church's spectacular set of pipes. And if you show up at 7pm, you'll hear a pre-concert lecture by musicologist Sara Ruhle Kyle, who specializes in music of the North German Baroque.

Typically, the tickets are between $35 and $50, but we're in the warm glow of the Groupmuse-iverse here, so you'll get yours for a mere Jackson - $20! (and $15 for supermusers...) But they likely won't last, so step right up!
