BACK TO BACH ~ Annual Bach Festival Returns August 24-26, 2012
We’re celebrating the return of the 24th Annual Bach Festival after Hurricane Irene interfered with the 2011 Festival and many guests’ plans for late August visits to the White Mountains.
So we’re making a special offer ~ book a two night stay in a fireplace room or jacuzzi room Aug. 24-27, and we’ll treat you to two tickets to either the Saturday evening or Sunday afternoon Festival performance at the Fryeburg Academy in nearby Fryeburg, Maine. Come hear the Festival Orchestra and Chorus perform works of Baroque Masters! Please request your performance choice when making your reservation for this package.

- Corelli ~ Concerto Grosso in C minor, Op. 6, No. 3
- Vivaldi ~ Concerto for two violins in a minor Op. 3, No. 8, RV 522
