Johann Sebastian Bach’s Motets
Choir of St. Luke in the Fields
Bach’s motets are some of the greatest – and most virtuosic – of all Bach’s choral works. They represent Bach both at his exuberant best, in particular, the large double choir works Singet dem Herrn and Der Geist Hilf. The motets also contain some of Bach’s most profound and intense music. As with virtually every other genre that he composed in, Bach brought motet composition to its pinnacle.
Tickets ordered after Feb 26 will be held at the door.
