Organist Larry Hershey will play a free 30 minute concert of “Romantic Flourishes” at First Reformed Church, 40 E. Orange Street, in downtown Lancaster. Selections will include Felix Mendelssohn’s “Allegro maestoso e vivace” from Sonata No. 4, “Canon in B Major” by Robert Schumann, and “Rhosymedre” (My Song is Love Unknown) by Ralph Vaughan Williams. Other works include “Grand Choeur in B-Flat” by Theodore Debois, and “Choral in E Major” by Joseph Jongen.

The First Friday “Organic Reflections” concert series on the Hill Byrne Christiansen Memorial Organ is a gift to the community from First Reformed Church, a center city congregation of the United Church of Christ. Only 30 minutes in length, the free concerts begin at 8 PM each First Friday for the convenience of those who wish to spend the early evening visiting downtown galleries before the concert. Doors open at 7:30 pm. All are welcome to hear 30 minutes of majestic music that will refresh your soul and inspire your spirit.
