Meet some of our patrons as they celebrate #mob45!

“They’re tremendous musicians. I never heard a performance I wasn’t thrilled with. And Bach is irresistible to me, 24/7. If I was on a desert island and could only pick one composer, it’d be him.”

— Herbert Schneiderman, MOB concertgoer since 1995

“Well, I’m German, and I grew up with Bach. So that’s why I like it.”

“And I love the singing. Such wonderful voices!”

— Helga Beinder (right), 8-year subscriber, with her friend Fran Martin

“There’s something about Baroque music that just aligns the energy bodies. You come in to the concert, you may be frustrated from your day — but then you hear the music.”

— Jackie Silvers, pictured with her husband Gary, 20-year subscribers

“I live in Lake Forest, and I like very much that Music of the Baroque is in a community venue so I don’t have to travel downtown. It’s always a great program!”

— Monica Larson, second-year subscriber
