Music at St. Paul’s continues its Artist Series season with an Advent Concert featuring two seasonal Baroque masterpieces:  Bach’s Cantata, BWV 61 Nun komm, der Heiden Heiland and Handel’s Messiah, Part I, on Friday at 7:30 p.m.  Artist Series concerts take place at St. Paul’s Episcopal Church, 305 W. Seventh Street (at Pine) in downtown Chattanooga.  For more information and tickets, visit: https: //www.stpaulschatt.org/artist-series-concerts

Performers for this Advent Concert include members of the North Carolina Baroque Orchestra, performing on historical instruments, and the St. Paul’s Choir with featured soloists: Marianna Allen, Eric Bash, Erik Gustafson, Jonathan Harris, Isaac Mullet, Rosella Ewing Terry, and Meredith Thomas.

St. Paul's Director of Music Paul Thomas said, "We are delighted to present two Baroque masterworks for the Advent season, featuring instruments that would have been familiar to Bach and Handel, but possibly not Chattanooga audiences. The musicians of the North Carolina Baroque Orchestra specialize in playing authentic period instruments featuring the warm sound of gut strings, the crisp articulation of convex bows, and the tone of the natural trumpet that crowns the whole ensemble. These sounds will combine with our semi-professional choir and soloists in St. Paul's soaring Nave for what promises to be a very special evening of music."
