Great Music at St. Bart’s

Great Music is produced by the Mid-Manhattan Performing Arts Foundation, which exists to cultivate, promote, and sponsor the performing arts at St. Bartholomew’s Church, a treasured masterpiece of architecture in Midtown Manhattan.

In addition to featuring an array of world-class performers, the series showcases two of New York’s most inspiring concert venues: St. Bart’s intimate and acoustically brilliant 150-seat chapel and the majestic 900-seat church, an architectural marvel whose Aeolian-Skinner pipe organ is the largest in New York City and one of the finest examples of the American Classic Organ.
