Our friends at The Riverside Church are welcoming back our Groupmuse community for a Night Out to celebrate their homecoming concert for the 2024-25 season. Get your tickets for only $10!

The concert will feature internationally acclaimed concert organist, Stephen Tharp, recognized as one of the great concert organists of our age. He has been hailed as "the organist for the connoisseur" (Journal für die Orgel, Germany), "the thinking person's performer" (Het Orgel), "every bit the equal of any organist" (The American Organist magazine) and "the consummate creative artist" (Michael Barone, Pipedreams).

The program will feature great displays of virtuosity and sensitivity, including a guest performance by soprano Kendra Berentsen who will join for the Four Last Songs of Richard Strauss.

🥂 A prosecco reception will follow the performance and is included in the price of your ticket.

Groupmuse ticket buyers are instructed to check in at a table at the entrance. Seating is first come, first served.
