In celebration of the church's recent acquisition of a Mason & Hamlin BB seven-foot grand piano, Trinity Presbyterian Church of Berwyn presents a FREE dedicatory concert with concert pianist, teacher, writer, and WRTI classical host Dr. Debra Lew Harder, on Sunday October 14th at 4:00 PM.
Titled 'Overcoming the Odds - Illness and Creativity of the Great Composers', Harder explores, through live musical performance and conversation, how many of the composers we consider the titans of Western music had to overcome serious debilitating illness. What compelled them to keep creating? How did their personal challenges allow them to become more innovative? Hear these geniuses' incredible music, and learn how creativity helped Beethoven, Chopin, Scott Joplin, Gershwin, and Hildegard von Bingen transcend disease.
We invite the community to come join us for this very special program, in the celebration of this very wonderful instrument. All are welcome.
