Concert Dates

BACH & ANGUISH

January-February 2026
In a turn to the painful side of life, Program Two pairs the lament of BWV 12 Weinen, Klagen, Sorgen, Zagen (“Weeping, lamenting, worry, apprehension”) with the consolation of BWV 127 Herr Jesu Christ, wahr' Mensch und Gott (“Lord Jesus Christ, true man and God”), as trumpet and oboes are joined by bassoon and baroque recorders. Exquisite choral works by Palestrina (Sicut Cervus) and Arnesen (“Even When He Is Silent”) round out the program.

Concert dates coming soon.

BACH & TRIUMPH

March 2026
Death and darkness are unravelled in the cantatas of program three: the epic BWV 4 Christ lag in Todesbanden (“Christ lay in death’s bonds”) with its solemn Easter hallelujahs, and the brilliant BWV 67 Halt im Gedächtnis Jesum Christ (“Keep in memory Jesus Christ”) with its promise of peace that quenches fear. In this program, baroque horn joins the ensemble for the first time.

Concert dates coming soon.

BACH & WINGS

April-May 2026
Season Four concludes with trumpets, tympani, and a doubled choir in a program touching the theme of Christ’s ascension and loving care. Cantata BWV 137 Lobe den Herren, den mächtigen König der Ehren (“Praise the Lord, the mighty king of honour”) explores variations on the familiar hymn by Neander, while Cantata BWV 43 Gott fähret auf mit Jauchzen (“God ascends with shouts of joy”) revisits the heroic drama of Easter with grand perspective.

Concert dates coming soon.
