After 47 years of performance in the Louisville, area, the Louisville Bach Society has decided to cease operations at the close of the 2011
season.

The season will culminate with a performance of Bach’s magnificent Mass in B Minor, a work which was one of Bach’s last works.

The decision was prompted by the retirement of the founders, Melvin and Margaret

Dickinson, compounded by a difficult economy facing the arts community. The Mass in B Minor will be performed on May 1st at 3 p.m. at Harvey Browne Presbyterian Church.
