SUMMARY:"Blessings & Benediction" Concert
DESCRIPTION:  \nThis concert honors and remembers the former conductors and members of the Bach Choir of Bethlehem and Bach festival orchestra since its beginning in 1898.  their memory and legacy remain with us and continue to inspire us.  The concert is supported in part by an endowment gift from Anthony R. Thompson and Vickie Ziegler Thompson.   \nFor our closing concert of the 2021 Bethlehem Bach Festival\,  members of The Choir and Bach Festival Orchestra joined by featured soloists\, present a program of four complete Bach Cantatas and a duet from Cantata 80. This concert will be live-streamed from the beautiful sanctuary of St. John’s Lutheran Church in Allentown\, our summer home for “Bach at Noon” concerts. \n \n  \n  \n  \nAnnounced soloists: Sherezade Panthaki\, soprano\, Meg Bragle\, mezzo-soprano\,\nLawrence Jones\, tenor and Dashon Burton\, bass-baritone. \nArtistic Director and Conductor Greg Funfgeld carefully chose these particular Cantatas\, as Bach later took movements from these works when he was assembling his MASS in B MINOR at the end of his life: \nCantata 120 Gott\, man lobet dich in der Stille\nCantata 171 Gott\, wie dein Name\, so ist auch dein Ruhm\nCantata 12 Weinen\, Klagen\, Sorgen\, Zagen\nDuet from Cantata 80 Ein feste Burg ist unser Gott\nCantata 191 Gloria in excelsis Deo \nThe concert begins at 7:30 pm Eastern Time.  To find your local time\, please CLICK HERE. \nVirtual Registration \nShare This:
