Christ Episcopal Church has proudly established the new "Christ Church
Concert Series" in conjunction with the installation of its new thirty-one
rank pipe organ designed by Kegg Pipe Organ Builders, and the recent
acoustical renovations made to the church.  The Concert Series is designed
to promote and celebrate great music literature written especially for the
pipe organ and for the human voice, while benefiting Christ Church's
ministries.

Each year the Concert Series will feature both local and internationally
renowned organ soloists in concert.  In addition, the Series will include
two annual concerts of long-standing tradition at Christ Church:  the
Rhododendron Festival Concert held at the end of April, a celebration of
pipe organ and choral music performed by local musicians; and the Monster
Mash, "scary music" for the kids at Halloween.

During the summer, the Concert Series will present a series of three
mini-concerts on the fourth Sunday of the month, at 4 pm.  "Sundays at 4"
will feature short, informal "drop-in" concerts with local organists and
other musicians in a relaxed setting, and will include interactive and
educational components.  Concerts are free and open to the public and will
be held in the Nave of Christ Episcopal Church, 625 15th Street, Eureka,
at 4 pm.  Details of each program are posted on the calendar at the Christ
Episcopal Church web site at:  www.ChristChurchEureka.org.

The second concert of the “Sundays at 4” summer series, will include a performance of the “Benedictus” from the Bach MASS IN B MINOR, with David Powell, tenor; Nancy Streufert, flute, and Douglas Moorehead, organ. Dr. Moorehead will also discuss and perform “Dieu parmi nous” (God among us), from the NATIVITY SUITE of Olivier Messiaen, composed for organ. Audience interaction with the performers is encouraged in this informal series, which is free and open to the public.
