![]() Scott Allen Jarrett More>> Frequently Asked Questions: Q. How early should I arrive to get a seat? A.The Sunday morning service fills up quickly so we suggest arriving 45 minutes to a full hour early. For the Episcopal Church and Cranmore Mountain Resort there is plenty of seating. Bear in mind that a large part of our audience comes for the concert previews which begin a half hour before most concerts.
Q. Is there adequate parking? Q. Do I need to purchase tickets in Advance? Special thanks to the innkeepers at Open Door Inns for their support. Bach Links

Bach is Beautiful at any Age Since the 18th century, there has been a fascination and basic enjoyment of the music of Johann Sebastian Bach by people of all ages and backgrounds. Happily, this fact holds true here in the Mt. Washington Valley as the 17th Annual Bach Festival, presented by the White Mountain Musical Arts, takes shape for presentation of five performances August 25th through August 28th. Considered a prolific Baroque composer, Bach wrote music for all types of instruments and chamber groups as well as five cycles of church cantatas for every Sunday of the year and including special holy days! Bridging the 17th an 18th centuries, Bach’s compositions are played by every beginning piano student, are represented in most church hymnbooks, and heard at live performances throughout the world every year. However, there are only a handful of presentations, especially in the Northeast, where a full festival of music is devoted exclusively to the music of Bach, and we are fortunate to be the location of one of those two or three festivals every year in the Mt. Washington Valley.
