http://www.newenglandconservatory.eduCantata Singers propels into its 48th season with a return to the organization’s roots, embracing the music of J.S. Bach along with works inspired by and in thematic alignment with the tenor of the master-composer’s catalogue.
Its first concert of the new season features many “firsts”: the world premiere of Stephen Hartke’s complete Precepts featuring oboe soloist Peggy Pearson, a fragment of which the group presented in 2007; the Boston premiere of Hartke’s A Brandenburg Autumn; and the first time Cantata Singers presents Bach’s Brandenburg Concerto No. 1 in F and Lutheran Mass in F. All four works on the program suggest all of our autumns—times of joy, sadness, eagerness and reflection during this auspicious autumnal season.
