Megaron On-line Presents: Classical Christmas Concerts

Balthasar Neumann Choir & Ensemble, Bach Mass in B Minor
When: December 20th at 12:00

Johann Sebastian Bach’s B minor Mass revolves around subjects that penetrate to the innermost depths of the soul: solitude and despair, joy and rapture. Music that gets under one’s skin. With Bach’s last great vocal work, which goes well beyond the scope of church liturgy, Thomas Hengelbrock and his Balthasar Neumann ensembles embark on a journey to the existential questions of life.
