Handel Lite Benefit-- "Handel and Hammerstein" About Us: The Handel Week Festival is an annual week long festival to celebrate the music of George Frederic Handel (1685-1759). The Festival is held in the spring of each year at Grace Episcopal Church, in Oak Park Illinois. It was begun in 2000, patterned after the highly sucessful Bach Week Festival in Evanston. Founders Dr. Dennis E. Northway and Charles Chauncey Wells believed that the works of this great master would be as enthusiastically received as Bach Week's more than 28 years of success. Handel Week Festival is a production of Handel Week Incorporated, an Illinois non-profit corporation devoted to popularizing and promoting the music of Handel. It encourages musicians and various media venues to play his works and supports activities pertaining to Handel both in Chicagoland and throughout the world. Handel Week Incorporated is a not-for-profit corporation under Section 501(c)3 of the Internal Revenue Code. Contributions are tax deductable to the extent permitted by law. |
