ONLINE EVENT: Pop-up Salon Recital – Edward Clark, harpischord and organ

Hartford Symphony Orchestra organist Edward Clark performs for us on Wednesday, April 15 at 12:15 in his home studio. Missed it? No problem! After the concert, you can watch the concert at any time at this same link.

Music at the Red Door online recitals are offered as a benefit for people deeply in Greater Hartford effected by COVID-19: please help. Please thank our artists by donating generously to: Loaves & Fishes, Journey Home, and/or Food Share. At St. John’s, we have only limited resources to help the homeless and hungry, and with the office closed, we are not able to see people directly.
