Bach Collegium San Diego (BCSD), one of the country’s leading baroque ensembles, presents its season highlight with its namesake composer “J.S. Bach: Mass in B Minor BWV232.” The "Mass in B minor" represents a pinnacle and summation of Bach’s musical language into one cohesive work. Completed in 1748-9, the "Mass in B minor" was never performed during Bach’s lifetime. The first documented complete performance took place in 1859, over a century after Bach’s death. The "Mass in B minor" is a vast and complex work, with 26 individual sections exemplifying diverse musical styles, oftentimes borrowing from and recasting earlier works of Bach. Bach takes us on a journey through some of his most sublime musical ideas, from moments of meditation and repose, to full blown ecstasy and euphoria. Soloists Estelí Gomez, soprano Jay Carter, countertenor Aaron Sheehan, Michael Jones, tenors Enrico Lagasca, bass Bach Collegium San Diego engages audiences with accessible, historically informed performances and educational programs featuring repertoire from the Renaissance, Baroque, and early Classical eras. The ensemble was founded in 2003 by Music Director Ruben Valenzuela to diversify the musical offerings of the San Diego community. Bach Collegium San Diego on Facebook / Instagram
