J.S. Bach ~ Morimur (in Hanover)

Nota Bene Period Orchestrawas founded in 2001 by Daniel Zondervan, Michael Purves-Smith and Richard Cunningham. The intention was to perform music from the 17th and 18th century with special attention to the performance practices of the time. Nota Bene Period Orchestra was renamed to Nota Bene Baroque Players in the Fall of 2011. This change was made so that the name clearly reflected the orchestra's identity as Kitchener-Waterloo’s professional Baroque group.Finally, in 2021, wishing to expand on the growing repertoire of  historical informed performances across the eras, the Nota Bene Baroque Players undergo a name change once more to that of theNota Bene Players & Singersbringing to its audience performances on authentic or replica instruments, and stylistically coming as close as possible to recreating what the composers from these earlier eras intended us to hear.

J.S. Bach ~ MorimurPartita in D Minor for solo violin by J.S. Bach and Related ChoralesIt is a well-established that, embedded in J.S. Bach&#x27;s music, are many highly symbolic gestures. His fascination with numbers resulted in countless numerical references rife with theological and personal significance. It was during his time in Cöthen that his wife Maria Barbara died unexpectedly, leaving him with a brood of young children. In his grief he composed the D Minor Partita for solo violin. In its famous concluding movement, the Chaconne, are numerous cryptic references to chorales on the theme of death. This performance of the Partita will feature the brilliant Canadian violinist Edwin Huizinga and a quartet of stellar Nota Bene vocalists.
