On August 11th, the BACH Ensemble will perform one of Bach's most famous Cantatas, No.80, "Ein feste Burg ist unser Gott," ("A mighty fortress is our God") along with Cantata No. 82, "Ich habe genug" ("I've had enough") at Saint Mary Magdalen Church in Berkeley. Cantata No. 82 Bass solo cantata, will feature our own Andrew J. Chung as the soloist, and Cantata No. 80 will feature soloists drawn from the BACH Chamber Chorus. Anticipating BACH's 10th Season, this will be a free concert with a suggested donation of $10. Please join us in the celebration.
Called by some "the most versatile group in the Bay Area," BACH's impressive range of repertoire has included cantatas, symphonies and masses. The Opera division, incorporating stage professionals and up-and-comers, first performed at the Julia Morgan Center for the Arts, presenting a concert version of Mozart's "Le Nozze di Figaro" in December 2000. Since its inception in 1998 by graduate and undergraduate students of the Music Department of UC Berkeley, BACH has cultivated young musical talent through the performance of great classical works for audiences in the Bay Area and beyond. The group attained non-profit status in May 2002, promoting professionalism and providing tax benefits to its donors.
