POSTPONED: CPE BACH: The Last Sufferings of Christ

New York Baroque Incorporated joins The Saint Thomas Choir of Men and Boys once again by for the wonderful and under-performed ‘stile galant’ oratorio by J. S. Bach’s illustrious son, Carl Philipp Emanuel Bach. Die letzten Leiden des Erlösers (The Last Sufferings of Christ) was first performed in 1770, and was performed in C.P.E. Bach’s native Hamburg every year until 1785. Contemplative and dramatic by turns, this refined music offers a beautiful introduction to the spirituality of the season.

Reflecting Lully: NYBI at Miller Theater

Reflecting the life of Jean-Baptiste Lully, godfather of French opera, New York Baroque Incorporated debuts at the Miller Theater with a program shaped by the style, structure, and spectacle of his music as well as his multicultural upbringing. Pairing frilly French opera overtures and stylish ballet dances with virtuosic Italian sinfonias and concerti grossi, the program balances the two leading musical tastes of the Baroque with music by Mondonville, Telemann, and expats (like Lully himself) Muffat and Handel.
