2023 Spring Mailer

Dear Peoria Music Lover …

Here is the brochure for the spring season 2023 of the Gretchen R. Iben Arts Series at Westminster Church of Peoria.

We hope you will consider the offerings, and make a special effort to join us for some of the world’s greatest music here at the corner of Moss Avenue and Malvern Lane.  We mark Black Music Month with another Jazz meets Spirituals program so well received last season; another program by the distinguished pianist from Bradley University, Chee Hyeon Choi, and the spring program of Lumiere, the brilliant chamber choir. 

Also, we are pleased to announce Westminster Church as the new home of the Peoria Bach Festival. In the brochure is an outline of the various offerings of the Festival.  Plan to attend this superb festival led by Dr. John Jost and Dr. Martin Dicke.  If you would like to help support either the Iben Series or the Bach Festival, you may do so by sending a check to Westminster Church and marking the memo line with your preferred recipient.  We are pleased to become one of the area’s premier venues for great music in Central Illinois.  Come, enjoy with us! 

We look forward to seeing you all at the events of the Iben Series.  Put them on your calendar now and arrive early for a good seat!
