Join us for this special holiday concert in the museum on the historic 1776 Tannenberg organ. Thomas Dressler has performed for more than thirty years, often on historic instruments, including some of America's oldest and most historic organs. He earned a Bachelor of Music in Organ Performance, cum laude, from Susquehanna University, and a Master of Music in Performance, with honors, from Westminster Choir College. Dressler has held large church positions in Philadelphia and New Jersey. Currently, he is the Director of Music at College Hill Presbyterian Church in Easton, Pa.

The 1776 Tannenberg organ is one of the oldest surviving pipe organs in North America. It was made by David Tannenberg (1728-1804), one of America's best known organ builders, for the Moravian Single Brethren's House in Bethlehem. Among the organ's most famous audience members was General George Washington, who heard the organ played during his visit to Bethlehem in 1782. Only nine of Tannenberg's organs still exist today. 

The concert will take place in the Museum on the second floor of the Whitefield House and is accessible only by stairs.
