“We mustn’t let the devil have all the good tunes” has been attributed to Luther and Wesley. Let’s do some research and find the Chorales that share familiar melodic lines with drinking songs. There are many to find.
We will sing with gusto and support the local pub.
Bach certainly enjoyed some beer.
Did you know that part of Bach’s income was based on beer tax remissions? From the Bach Reader, p. 127. “A Receipt. That I have received from Mr. Johann Paul Latzer, a regularly appointed Assessment and Liquor Tax Collector. . .the tax amount for three barrels of beer.”
Join us for an evening of comradery and gusto!
We have the whole place to ourselves. This is a private event for all GKCAGO members and their friends. Bring as many as you like. We would love to meet you!
Food, and of course, many varieties of bier will be available for purchase.
