Fine Arts Series at St. Marcus

Dr. Wyatt Smith | Organ Concert

February 13 | 7:00 pm

Join us on Friday, February 13 at 7:00 pm for an organ concert featuring Dr. Wyatt Smith. This program explores themes of light and moving from darkness to light. Following the liturgical life of the church, the first half of the program lives in the light of the season of Epiphany. The second part of the program looks ahead to the coming season of Lent and the ultimate light of the Resurrection promise, exploring musical transformations throughout.

Admission is free, but donations are appreciated to offset costs. A catered reception will follow.

About The Lutheran Ceili Orchestra

The Lutheran Ceili Orchestra was founded by Pastor Mark Jeske and music director Jeff Krumbein in Milwaukee, Wisconsin in the 1990s. Originally assembled from members of St. Marcus Lutheran Church to accompany a Christian worship service around St. Patrick's Day, the group has grown to include members of Lutheran churches from all over Wisconsin and tours across the country. Their unique mission is to lead meaningful, edifying liturgical worship while bringing forward the voice of the ancient Celtic Christian.

The St. Marcus Fine Arts Series launched in September of 2019 shortly after the rebuild of its spectacular 34-rank pipe organ. The series aims at bringing together the greater community to hear notable music by expert talent. Concerts take place in the beautiful church sanctuary built in 1913, with its wonderful acoustics. Concerts are followed by a beer and wine reception to visit with artists and fellow attendees. Concerts are free and open to the community.
