Bach's music is paired perfectly with readings to celebrate the seasons of Advent, Christmas and Epiphany. Audience accolades for the concert last season inspired Maestro Fagan to explore more of Bach's music.
Who was the architect for the great pyramids of South
America?
Who was the sculptor of the Warrior's Legions of China?
These we do not know! But this truth we do: Johann Sebastian Bach in his music scaled the same dizzying heights and sculpted the same intricacies in his life body of musical genius. There has never been his equal.
It is with profound happiness that we give to you, the audience, ten of his most awesome choruses all in one program!
Add to that readings from the Bible telling the Christmas story and you have the second year of the Gerald Fagan Singers' odyssey through Bach's incredible talent.
Last year's Christmas with Bach was a smash! Why not come to Windermere on the Mount and find out why? You will not be disappointed.
