BACH Mass in B minor BWV 232

Bach’s Mass in B minor has been universally admired and widely performed for centuries. It has been described as a work where the sublime and the intimate co-exist, and where traditional elements of the mass were combined by Bach in a way that was unique and new. Drawing on music composed across his life, this is one of the composer’s final works and considered by many to be his personal epitaph. In this performance, internationally celebrated organist David Hill will conduct Yale Schola Cantorum, founded in 2003 by Simon Carrington. The choir has a special interest in historically informed performance practice, often in collaboration with instrumentalists from Juilliard415.

Concert duration: 120 minutes, one interval, approx. 50 minutes in.
