Description
Celebrating the Vancouver Cantata Singers 60th anniversary, we present you our favourite Bach cantatas and motets (see list below) with an exciting ensemble of the west coast’s renowned period instrument performers, plus a special anniversary commission by BC composer, Jocelyn Morlock. Bach wrote over 200 cantatas and 6 motets; be inspired by the glorious polyphony created at the heart of his creative output. Bach’s relatable take on the human condition, devotion, and sorrow remain as relevant today as it was three centuries ago.
cantatas: Wachet Auf (BWV 140) and Nun komm, der Heiden Heiland (BWV 61)
motets: Komm, Jesu, Komm (BWV 229), Lobet den Herrn (BWV 230), and O Jesu Christ (BWV 118)
