“Organic Reflections: Moments of Majesty”

The Hill Byrne/Christiansen Memorial Organ will be featured in a free 30 minute concert by organist Larry Hershey on First Friday, January 2 at 8 PM at First Reformed Church, 40 E. Orange Street, in downtown Lancaster. The program, “Moments of Majesty” will include Handel’s “Grand Choeur”, and the famous “Coronation March” by Giacomo Meyerbeers. The organ’s chimes will be featured in Purcell’s “Bell Symphony” and the program will conclude with William Walton’s “Crown Imperial.”

The First Friday “Organic Reflections” concert series is a gift to the community from First Reformed Church, a center city congregation of the United Church of Christ. Only 30 minutes in length, the free concerts begin at 8 PM each First Friday for the convenience of those who wish to spend the early evening visiting downtown galleries before the concert. Doors open at 7:30 pm. All are welcome to hear 30 minutes of majestic music that will refresh your soul and inspire your spirit.
