Happy Birthday, Johann Sebastian Bach!

Considered by many to be one of the greatest composers in history, Johann Sebastian Bach’s birthday is generally celebrated on March 21. Born in 1685, JS Bach had a stunning output of vocal and instrumental music throughout his lifetime, working, among other locations, at churches in Weimar, Arnstadt, and Leipzig. In our March 21st playing meeting, we will explore some of his music, from SATB 4-part vocal chorals, to the triple canon for 6 voices visible in one of his famous portraits, to instrumental settings of music contained in the notebook for Anna Magdalena Bach, all in recorder arrangements. While much of Bach’s music is well-known for its sublime complexity and often also technical difficulty, I will make sure that these music selections will include parts accessible for a wide range of playing levels.
