St. John’s Organ Society is pleased to present a concert on Thursday, August 22, at 7:30 pm, featuring Duo Edelen: Christina Scott Edelen (organ) and Fred Edelen (cello) (Bath, ME), performing music of Antonio Vivaldi, Johann Sebastian Bach, and Willem de Fesch.
The concert is part of the 31st Summer Recital Series on Maine’s largest 19th-Century mechanical-action pipe organ, E. & G. G. Hook’s magnificent Opus 288, at St. John’s Roman Catholic Church in Bangor.
Duo Edelen has performed since 1983 in countless concerts in both the US and Europe on both modern and original instruments. Comprised of cello (Baroque and modern) and keyboard (harpsichord, organ, and fortepiano), the duo has won a name for itself through its expressive playing, tonal beauty, and virtuosity.
These hour-long recitals occur on Thursday evenings at 7:30. St. John’s Catholic Church is located at 207 York Street in Bangor. Admission is free, but donations are appreciated.
