Bach, Family, and Friends: An Evening of Motets

This is an informal presentation of motets by J. S. Bach, other members of the Bach family, and contemporaneous works. The program explores the breadth of seventeenth- and early eighteenth-century motet repertory.

Free admission. Parking is available in the Bryan Center Garage at 125 Science Dr.

The concert is presented by singers with the Chorworks summer program. Directed by the Chapel's conductor-in-residence Dr. Philip Cave, Chorworks is a week-long workshop for talented, early-career singers to deepen their facility with early music repertoire.

Chorworks' founder, Dr. Cave, is a conductor, educator, singer, and the director of the professional ensemble Magnificat. As a vocal soloist, he has worked with celebrated conductors including Leonard Bernstein, and at venues including the Beethovenhalle in Bonn and the Sydney Opera House. He has performed across Europe, at the BBC Promenade Concerts in London, and has shared the concert platform with many distinguished musicians, including Sir Peter Pears, Sting, and Sir Paul McCartney.

Dr. Cave is joined in leading this year's Chorworks workshop by guest artist instructors, including soprano Molly Quinn, baritone Harrison Hintzsche, and instrumentalist Daniel Swenborg.
