Program two juxtaposes Bach with the most important German early Baroque composer to precede him, Heinrich Schütz, in a program tuned to awe and contemplation, featuring Motet BWV 227 “Jesu, meine Freude,” selections from Schütz’s Musikalische Exequien, and music for unaccompanied cello.

2024/25 Programs

BACH & ROSES

TBP's third season opens with dynamism and delight through the vigor of Cantata BWV 72 Alles nur nach Gottes Willen ("Everything according to God's will") and the warmth of Cantata BWV 182 Himmelskönig sei willkommen ("King of heaven, welcome"). With an ensemble of twelve singers, five string instruments, baroque recorder and oboes, this program blends choral richness with a sequence of exquisite vocal and instrumental solos.
