Organ Dedication Concert: Sunday, May 7th @ 3:00pm
Join us for an organ concert on Sunday, May 7th, to celebrate the dedication of the Organcraft organ installed in early 2020 at First Moravian Church. The dedication, which begins at 3pm in the church sanctuary, will recognize the rich heritage of Moravian music and First Moravian’s music ministry. The dedication was originally scheduled for May 2020, but was repeatedly postponed due to the Covid-19 pandemic.
Susan Bates, adjunct music faculty member at Wake Forest University, will perform selections including Preludes on Moravian Chorales, Bach’s Fugue in E-Flat Major (BWV 552), Variations on "All Things Bright and Beautiful" by James M. Bates, and “The Peace can be exchanged" (from Rubrics) by Dan Locklair. The program will also include performances by First Moravian’s organist Ann Curtis, accompanied by trumpeter Jay Lineberry andthe FMC Chancel Choir under the direction of Dr. Jane McKinney.
Susan Bates served as a consultant to First Moravian during its search for a new instrument to replace its aging organ. She was educated at Salem College and Yale University and has served as organist at Home Moravian Church and Centenary United Methodist Church in Winston-Salem, as well as West Market Street United Methodist Church in Greensboro. At Wake Forest University, she teaches organ and harpsichord.
