Artistic Director Andrus Madsen plays a program of 17th-century South German and Austrian keyboard music on harpsichord and on South Church's splendid 1896 Casavant organ. The program will focus on Johann Pachelbel, Johann Jakob Froberger, Johann Kaspar Kerll and Georg Muffat, all composers whose music leans heavily toward expression and color. While a Bach Chorale Prelude might come across like an extraordinarily well-crafted sermon, a Pachelbel work feels more like the intimate conversation one might have at night alone with a dearest friend. This is music intimately expressing the deepest joy, the most profound sadness, and all varieties of tenderness.
Andrus Madsen is an active performer on the organ, harpsichord, clavichord, and fortepiano. He is the founding director of Newton Baroque and also performs with the Boston-based vocal ensemble Exsultemus. Madsen is known for his eloquent Baroque-style improvisation and for his inventive programming, striving to bridge the barriers between audience and performers. He holds a doctorate in harpsichord performance and literature from the Eastman School of Music and serves as music director at several churches and synagogues in the greater Boston area; he also teaches privately.

“The Bill of Rights: Ten Amendments in Eight Motets,” set to music by Wesleyan University’s John Spencer Camp Professor of Music, Neely Bruce, will be performed on October 10 at Wesleyan University’s Crowell Concert Hall in Middletown. A combination of community choral singers, including those from Middletown-based GMChorale’s chamber ensemble, “Alchemy,” Wesleyan students, and others will join together as “Festival Harmony” to present this work, which will be accompanied by harp, string quintet, flute and oboe.
“The Bill of Rights” was first debuted in Middletown in 2005 and premiered in Boston and Washington, DC in 2012. In writing the music, Prof. Bruce’s goal was to encourage young people to be more aware of the rights embraced by our Founding Fathers and the struggle to pass them on. Composed in the style of William Billings (1746-1800), it is an interesting piece, with a well-messaged compositional genesis and storied performance history throughout the region.
The Center for the Study of Guns and Society at Wesleyan - the only center of its kind in the country - has engaged Prof. Bruce and his “The Bill of Rights” for a high-visibility project that includes documentary filmmaker Karyl Evans, Harvard Professor Jill Lepore and Wesleyan Professor Jennifer Tucker, who are producing a documentary and performance video of the work for CPTV and national PBS broadcasts.

Southborough, MA — The Assabet Valley Mastersingers (AVM) is thrilled to announce its November 2025 concert. This concert features the Mass in C by Beethoven, as well as the Requiem in D by Maurice Durufle. We will have an organist accompany the Requiem in D.
Join the choir to kick off this inspiring season of music by AVM that speaks to unity, resilience, and hope. Our 2025-2026 season, “Together We Can”, brings powerful works together that celebrate the strength of the human spirit.
Beethoven’s deeply expressive Mass in C and Duruflé’s poignant Requiem explore faith, memory, and the emotions that connect us to something greater. The Mass in C was written during the middle period of Beethoven's musical career; this was Beethoven's first mass and very much influenced by the aura of Haydn's reputation. Durufle’s Requiem features impressionistic harmonies and is deeply serene and meditative.
