Wheaton Conversation Concert with Bach's Jesu, meine Freude

Presented by ChorSymphonica at Hughes United Methodist Church

Annual English/Spanish event with the professional classical ensemble ChorSymphonica at Hughes United Methodist Church/El Buen Samaritano in Wheaton.

A special event! For our annual Wheaton Conversation Concert programs ChorSymphonica presents the introductory lectures in English and Spanish. The spectacular piece to be introduced and performed this year: Bach’s great motet for 5-part choir and orchestra, “Jesu, meine Freude,” BWV 227. Conceived as a training piece for his Leipzig boy choir, this motet contains some of the most sublime music ever written for chorus. Introduced in English and Spanish by Artistic Director and Conductor Richard Allen Roe and Special Guest, Dr. Diana Sáez.

Un “Concierto Conversatorio” es un evento especial donde se utilizan cantantes solistas, coro y orquesta para mostrar elementos importantes de la música en una conferencia pre- concierto. En 20 minutos, exploraremos el contexto musical e histórico de la obra programada para dar aconocer la intención del compositor y que ésta sea accesible a nuestro oído moderno y relevante a nuestra vida contemporánea. Para los programas que presentamos en Wheaton, traducimos las conferencias al español para que el mensaje de la música llegue a mas personas. Después de la conferencia, interpretamos la obra sin interrupción.”
