Forest Hills Presbyterian Church Presenting Virtual Lenten Series

Press release from Forest Hills Presbyterian Church:

Feb. 11, 2021

Forest Hills Presbyterian Church will be presenting a new Lenten series, ‘Sacred Masterworks for Lent’, a guided listening and discussion of Handel’s ‘Messiah’ Parts II and III. Since most performance halls are still closed due to Covid, the tradition of sacred masterworks performed during Lent has been hampered, to say the least. This year, we will meet via Zoom.

This series will take place weekly on Fridays at noon. We will begin on February 19th and run through April 9th, 2021.

Dr. Irma-Louise Wright, the Music Director at FHPC, will lead the series. The presentation will be from a music appreciation perspective: guided listening, discussion, with some historic references and a lot of participation. Even if you know this incredible work very well, please join us, there is always another discovery to be made or inspiring revelation to be found when immersing oneself in a masterwork. If you do not know this work, you will be in for a treat!
Dr. Wright oversees a vibrant church music program which includes the FHPC Chancel Choir, the FHPC Handbell Choir, and the FHPC Wind Ensemble. Wright taught at the University of Port Elizabeth, South Africa, after which she studied at and graduated from Florida State University.

All are welcome to join in. You can join in for one session or for the whole series.
The Zoom invitation link will be posted on our Facebook page every week. Please call the church office for the password.
