Join us for an unforgettable evening of artistry and celebration at Bethlehem’s Musikfest Cafe, where pianist Dan Tepfer will perform his acclaimed Inventions/Reinventions. Interweaving Bach’s Two-Part Inventions with his own improvisations in the “missing” keys, Tepfer offers a brilliant 24-key journey through tradition and innovation – honoring Bach’s legacy while delivering a bold, contemporary voice.

This special fundraiser evening includes a beautifully curated dinner and an intimate concert experience, supporting the Bach Choir’s mission to inspire through music that transcends time and inspires new generations. Proceeds benefit the Bach Choir’s Youth Education and Community Engagement programs.

By Christopher Chen
A searing and timely exploration of colonialism, power, and the invisible walls that divide us. Passage is a gripping modern-day allegory that speaks directly to our current moment-challenging us to reflect on systems of oppression and the struggle to connect across differences. Urgent, thought-provoking, and profoundly human, this play invites audiences to question how we move forward in a fractured world. Adam Ercolani, director.

Goodnight Moonshine is the dynamic duo of singer-songwriter Molly Venter (of Red Molly) and guitarist/producer Eben Pariser (of Roosevelt Dime). Blending Molly’s soulful, literary songwriting with Eben’s imaginative guitar work, they create a rich, jazz-infused folk sound. Known for their emotional depth and musical intimacy, the pair brings years of performance, storytelling, and collaboration to the stage — offering songs that are both deeply personal and universally resonant.

Opening Guest is Alex Radus – a “versatile crooner” (UMC Nashville) and “master guitarist” (Courier News), but his songwriting takes center stage. Known for his signature “genre whiplash,” he blends whimsical and poignant storytelling with an eclectic mix of Americana, swing, blues, and folk.

Tom Keifer remains a resilient, relevant figure in the rock world through constant reimagination and renewal. His story begins as the singer-songwriter, guitarist and front man of hard rock heavyweights Cinderella. His signature voice and guitar, and bluesy, no-BS arena-shaking songwriting, were integral in moving 15 million records worldwide.
