Newton Choral Society Presents 'The Splendor of Bach'

Newton Choral Society ends their season with a rich array of Bach’s choral music being led by Roslindale's David Carrier as the Music Director.

The program includes one of his most ambitious motets, Singet dem Herrn for double chorus, along with Cantata 182, Himmelskönig, sei willkommen, one of Bach’s earliest cantatas featuring an unusual orchestration, with recorder, a single violin, two violas, plus cello and organ.

Lobet dem Herrn, alle Heiden, a motet based on Psalm 117 will be performed by a chamber chorus drawn from NCS singers.  Cantata 51, Jauchzet Gott in allen Landen, a jubilant and virtuosic soprano cantata, will be performed by Susan Consoli.
