Details
"We must enter the Kingdom of Heaven through much sorrow." Thus, the librettist of Cantata 146 takes the listener into deep reflection on the dark side of the human condition. Yet Bach, in his musical setting, opens the Cantata with what must be one of the most glorious orchestral "concertos" he ever composed. Such is the juxtaposition between words and music.
Join Dr. Marianne Pfau for this lecture which provides an eye-opening preview of the music from the Angelus Series, to be held Saturday, Feb. 20 in Founders Chapel at 7 pm.
For ages 55 and up.
