Bach at One
The music that fueled Bach’s inspiration
Trinity organist Avi Stein will transport audiences into the musical milieu from which Johann Sebastian Bach emerged. As a member of a distinguished family of composers and instrumentalists, Bach was keenly aware of his place in the lineage, and his vast collection of manuscripts — by relatives, predecessors, and contemporaries — reveals that wide repertoire of inspiration. Along with soprano soloist Elisse Albian and musicians from the Trinity Baroque Orchestra, Stein will perform intensely passionate pieces from two of Bach’s influential 17th-century predecessors: Dieterich Buxtehude (Trio Sonata in A Minor and Herr, wenn ich nur Dich hab) and Christoph Bernhard (Aus der Tieffen).
