September 16, 2009 1:15 pm

St. Bartholomew's Church Chapel

Park Avenue and 51st Street

Laura Thompson, Sang Joon Park, baroque flutes, and Michael Eisenberg, harpsichord, perform flute music by J.S. Bach's sons Wilhelm Friedemann and Carl Philipp Emanuel, and their childhood friend Carl Friedrich Abel.

Since their debut at the Boston Early Music Festival in 2002, Bacchanalia Baroque has been giving spirited performances of baroque and early classical music on period instruments. They received their first public grant from the Lower Manhattan Cultural Council in 2007, for the performance of rare and reconstructed early American music. Bacchanalia has been heard in New York at The Saint Andrew Music Society at Madison Avenue Presbyterian Church, Christ Chapel Chamber Series at Riverside Church, Midtown Concerts, Saint Peter's Lutheran Church Classical Concert Series, Our Saviour's Atonement MOSA Series, Sundays on the Island, and Trinity Church's Music for the Spirit in New York City.
