Bach Birthday Bash
Day 1 - March 14, 2021

We are pleased to feature Pascal Givot and Evan Pechacek. We invite you to a Bach Birthday Bash series of YouTube performances of Bach’s music presented by the Twin Cities Chapter of the American Guild of Organists. COVID concerns have prevented us from presenting our usual day-long in-person extravaganza, but technology has allowed us to offer you a sequence of daily offerings throughout the coming week, leading up to Bach’s Birthday on March 21. Check your in-boxes and YouTbue for future program alerts. We begin here with our two youngest players…Paschal Givot, a 10th grader at St. Paul’s Central High School, and Evan Pechacek, an undergraduate student at the University of Wisconsin-River Falls. We hope you’ll enjoy these special productions…and celebrate Bach’s upcoming Birthday with us in style!
