Resonance Works presents "Bach's B Minor Mass" April 29th, 2023

Unlike all of Bach’s previous sacred WORKS, the B-MINOR MASS WAS NOT WRITTEN FOR THE URGENCY OF AN IMPENDING PERFORMANCE, but instead was the creation of a spiritual testament that became his ultimate legacy. It is the masterful assemblage of earlier WORKS, transformed pieces, and newly composed movements written across a quarter-century, and likely among the final compositions of his life.  Our performances of this astonishing masterwork bring together more than the usual number of soloists, with alums from throughout our history including sopranos Katy Shackleton Williams, Charlene Canty, Amelia D’Arcy, and Lara Lynn McGill, mezzo-sopranos Timothi Williams and Thespina Christulides, tenor Javier Abreu, and bass-baritone Matt Scollin. Join us in Fox Chapel, Coraopolis, or Oakland for a majestic musical experience!
