Event Details
This program brings together Johann Sebastian Bach and two of his sons to explore how one musical lineage contains strikingly different voices. J. S. Bach’s compelling Triple Concerto anchors the program, while the distinctive voices of his sons reveal how far the next generation traveled in musical innovation. Johann Christoph Friedrich’s stormy Symphony in D Minor bridges Baroque structure with a more modern dramatic voice, contrasting with Carl Philipp Emanuel’s Flute Concerto, with its lyrical expressiveness and moments of striking intensity. Together, they frame a genuine generational dialogue: are these styles kindred spirits, or rivals sparring across time?
