About The Champagne Flutes:
Offering “Champagne Music on a Beer Budget,” the Champagne Flutes are a Lehigh Valley-based flute ensemble, featuring music arranged for concert flutes, alto flute, bass flute and piccolo. Their eight members have been playing together since early 2022 and made their public debut at PorchFest on College Hill in Easton that fall. Since then, they have returned to PorchFest in 2023, appeared as guests of the Easton Municipal Band, performed at the concert at the Bethlehem Area Public Library, provided music for First Presbyterian Church of of Easton’s Christmas Eve service, and lots more. The “Flutes” are also proud members of the Easton Municipal Band, Bethlehem Area School District Alumni Band, Slate Belt Band, Valley Community Orchestra, and Lehigh Valley Pops Orchestra.
About the Chapel:
This non-sectarian chapel (note the symbols representing different religions) was built in 1875 for the convenience of families who wished to have services on the Cemetery grounds. Later, an addition in the back allowed room for the storage of bodies if needed until the gravesites could be prepared. The building was restored in 2001 when heat and electricity were added. All furniture in the Chapel is original to the building.
