For Dr. Barbara Thomson, Organist and Director of Music at the First
Congregational Church of Westfield,
"nothing gets better" than playing
Bach's Fugue in E Flat Major, the
"St. Anne." "I feel as if I become a
vehicle for the music—part of something larger. It's like tapping into universal consciousness."
Dr. Thomson will play the "St.
Anne" when she is honored for 10
years of service at the church at their
10 a.m. worship service on Sunday,
June 18. During her time ac u,e First
Congregational Church, the music
program has consistently grown and
now includes an adult choir, two
children's choirs and a bell choir.
In addition, Dr. Thomson initiated
and leads trie church's Mid-Day
Musicale program, which features
professional musicians eight times a
year during Advent and Lent.
"An accomplished and critically
acclaimed organist. Dr. Thomson has
degrees from the Pennsylvania State
University, the Eastman School of
Music and the Peabody Conservatory, and did further study at the
Hochschul furMusik unddarstellende
Kunst in Vienna, Austria. She has
concertized extensively in the United
States and Europe, and has been critically acclaimed for her technique,
musicianship and ability to communicate. Among other places, she has
performed at the Riverside Church in
New York, the Sacred Heart Cathedral in Newark and the Cathedral of
Notre Dame, Paris," a spokesman
said.
Having completed 10 years at the
First Congregational Church, she is
now the dean of the staff in terms of
years of service. "And she has never
missed a Sunday morning for reasons
of illness," commented the church's
Pastor, the Reverend Dr. John G.
Wightman. Dr. Thomson likes all
parts of her work. She especially
enjoys working with the church's
youth — watching them grow from
little children to grown adults — and
hymn playing, which she considers
"the most important music in the
church."

Dr. Barbara Thornton
Dr. Thomson is also Voorhecs

Music of Temple B'Nai Abraham in
Livingston. She finds it "very fulfilling" to be a temple musician at the
same time she serves the church.
"They complement each other. The
theology is not as different as people
think."
In addition to the "St. Anne," Dr.
Thomson will also play the "Allegro" from Organ Symphony VI by
