What is WMMA?

White Mountain Musical Arts ~

is the name of the group, begun in 2001 as a 501 ( c ) (3) organization to formally carry on the vision and dream of Dr. Clarence Sndyer, Organist Emeritus at Christ Church Episcopal, located in North Conway, when in 1989 he founded the Mt. Washington Valley’s first set of concerts dedicated to the music of J. S. Bach in an effort to fulfill “a vision of a major cultural event in New Hampshire’s North Country: an annual Bach Festival.”

The expanded mission of the WMMA is to:
“Exclusively bring public musical performances, primarily live performances of art music to the greater Mt. Washington Valley; and to provide opportunities for education in music through
lectures & lecture-recitals / concerts.”

WMMA currently presents both the annual Bach Festival during the fourth weekend of August, and a Chamber Music Concert Series with a varied schedule throughout the year.

Throughout the year we have been able to offer a true ‘Musical Vacation for the Soul’ and need your help to continue our programming. The Bach Festival alone has a budget of over $25,000 just for hiring the musicians and acquiring the published music. Musical jewels such as this and our Chamber Concert soloists like Frank Glazer, cannot be allowed to die out.

The only way that we can be assured of continuing is with your help - no matter what the size of your contribution! Please take a moment right now to send a gift of any size to help us continue to offer our ‘Treasure in the Mt. Washington Valley’:

The WMMA (Basically) Bach Festival and Chamber Concerts.

We would also suggest that you please consider WMMA in your estate planning.

And thank you for your support!
