SUMMARY:2026 Mary Keane Chapel Summer Concert Series
DESCRIPTION:Mary Keane Chapel Summer Concert Series\nSunday\, July 19\, 2026\n4:00 pm Start\nAll concerts will be held in the Mary Keane Chapel\nEnfield Shaker Museum\n447 NH Route 4A\nEnfield\, NH 03748\nshakermuseum.org \nSuggested donation $15.00. All concert donations support the ongoing restoration of the organ. \nAll concerts will be followed by a reception in the Museum Herb Garden (weather permitting) or in the Great Stone Dwelling. \nA Capella Chamber Choir\nTessitura\nEnfield Shaker Museum and the Brattleboro Music Center are pleased to present the a capella chamber choir\, Tessitura on Sunday\, July 19.  The concert will feature the music of Monteverdi and Poulenc. Also included in the program will be works by Louis Andriessen\, Fenno Heath\, and Eric Whitacre. \nThe choir includes singers from the Upper Valley and the Brattleboro area and is directed by Mark Nelson. A multifaceted musician with wide-ranging musical interests\, Mark Nelson has over 30 years’ experience conducting instrumental and choral ensembles. \nOrgan Restoration Update\nBob Waters and Richard Nickerson are continuing to address important restoration needs on the Casavant organ in the Museum’s Mary Keane Chapel. This fall and winter they removed and completely rebuilt the wind chest that receives and regulates the air pressure produced by the organ’s electric blower. This included replacing all the original leather work that controls the release of air to the organ pipes. In addition to maintaining the organ’s tuning\, they have been repairing coupling mechanisms that have failed. Unfortunately the Casavant company no longer makes certain replacement parts\, so some aspects of the restoration work requires creative problem solving. We are fortunate to have two craftsmen\, well versed in the intricacies of Casavant organ construction\, caring for this precious instrument. \nThank you for your support of their ongoing restoration work.
