Great Music at St. Bart’s continues the programmatic focus initiated by the Mid-Manhattan Performing Arts Foundation Artistic Director William K. Trafka (Director of Music and Organist of St. Bart’s): to embrace a wide range of music in programs that shine in St. Bart’s spaces. The magnificent 1918 Romanesque-style church, a National Historic Landmark, features a portal designed by Stanford White and a grand Byzantine-style interior and two of New York’s unlikely but outstanding concert spaces.
