Description

The Harttman/Kurtz organ, one of the oldest pipe organs in North America, will be held in the beautiful chapel on the grounds of the Brethren’s General Offices and will be performed by Dr. Jeffrey Neufeld, music director at First Congregational Church and organizer of the tour. The program will include works by Pachelbel, Sweelinck, Bach, Buxtehude, and Dupré, as well as hymn singing. The organ requires manual pumping to supply air to the pipes, and Dr. Neufeld will be assisted by his son, Charles Neufeld, and by Mr. Mark Kuntz, celebrated and recently retired cellist for the Elgin Symphony and a Church of the Brethren member.

Admission is free, and a free-will offering will be taken to support the upkeep of this historic organ and the ministries of the Church of the Brethren. For More Details:
