    Pianist Abe Minzer will present Johann Sebastian Bach's monumental keyboard work, the Well-Tempered Clavier, Book 1.  At the time of Bach's death in 1750, his music went into obscurity for almost 100 years, all except the Well-Tempered Clavier.  Romantic composer Robert Schumann referred to the Well-Tempered Clavier as his "daily bread" - it is a work that covers the full range of expression - intellectual, emotional and spiritual. The work is 2 hours and 30 minutes, and is comprised of 24 Preludes and Fugues, in all the major and minor keys. Because of the length of the work, there will be 2 intermissions. Come join us for one of the most soul-searching works, and what keyboard players of all types and times refer to as the Old Testament.

    The event will also include Holiday Potluck / Time for Reflection
