TLI Presents: Nicholas Phan, BACH 52, Part I
Tanglewood
Studio E, Linde Center for Music and Learning, Lenox/Stockbridge, MA
Based on Nicholas Phan’s innovative BACH 52 web series, these programs will explore the question: “Is the music of Bach for everyone?” Tenor arias with continuo accompaniment from Johann Sebastian Bach’s church cantatas will be paired with interviews with scholars, musicians, and audience-members to probe this question and examine the relevance of Bach’s music to today’s increasingly secular and diverse society.
