Bruins Playoffs, Bayside And Black Kray In Boston: MA Weekend Events

MASSACHUSETTS — It isn't so much a question of what there is to do in the Boston area and beyond, but rather, what should locals do?

Welcome to Patch's latest weekly roundup of highlight-worthy events across the city and surrounding areas. We've compiled them into one, easy-to-follow list, for your weekend planning.

With a performance of Johann Sebastian Bach's majestic "Mass in B Minor" in historic Mechanics Hall this Sunday, Music Worcester is launching "The Complete Bach".

Over the next 11 years, under the leadership of the initiative’s Artistic Director, Chris Shepard (also director of The Worcester Chorus) and Music Worcester’s Executive Director Adrien Finlay, Music Worcester will present over 1000 compositions by one of the most revered figures in Western music, culminating on March 21, 2035, the 350th anniversary of the Baroque master’s birth.

Plus: The Bruins are back at TD Garden, several concerts are heading to Boston and the surrounding areas and more.

Here are the events to know this weekend:
