Emeritus faculty member William Peterson presents a program of music by J.S. Bach and Buxtehude on the Hill Memorial Organ. A local favorite, and former College Organist at Pomona College, Peterson has played concerts throughout the United States, and his programs have included “French Organ Music from the Time of World War I,” “The Music of Johann Sebastian Bach” and a concert that featured a first half with music by sixteenth and seventeenth century Dutch and German composers and a second half with music by Erben, Krenek, and Kohn.

Internationally-renowned Festival favorite Vox Luminis returns with Dietrich Buxtehude’s remarkable meditation on the body of the crucified Christ. A work of deep profundity, the seven-cantata Membra Jesu nostri employs relatively limited vocal and instrumental forces—for the most part, five voice parts, two violins and basso continuo—to create an atmosphere of dramatic exultation. Be prepared to be entranced by Vox Luminis’s traversal of this most ambitious work by the master of Lübeck.

First Congregational Church

Florence Price was widely performed during the 1930’s, but by the fifties her work had dropped from view. Since the rediscovery of the full score for this concerto, pianist Michelle Cann’s ‘exquisite, authoritative’ performances are reintroducing Price to audiences and critics. Passionate, part Romantic, part bluesy, the Concerto is a small sample of Price’s repertory.</p>
<p>Conductor Tito Muñoz will open our final program with works by Buxtehude and Quinn Mason and close with Beethoven’s joyous Symphony No. 7. Beethoven called this work “one of the happiest products of my poor talents”— the perfect choice to conclude his 250th plus one, and Symphony Silicon Valley’s 20th anniversary season.

This program of soulful and moving compositions by four of the German Baroque’s most masterful composers begins with a 10-part setting of “Christ lag in Todesbanden” by Johann Pachelbel. Its seven movements unfold the deep richness of the composer’s reflections on the Easter text that Bach would later use for one of his earliest cantatas. And from the pen of one of Bach’s favorite composers, Dieterich Buxtehude, comes a bittersweet setting of the famous Eastertide chorale, “Jesu, meine Freude,” that would have been a great inspiration to Bach when he composed his own motet setting of the same verses several decades later. One of Bach’s earliest surviving cantatas, “Der Herr denket an uns” (Psalm 115: “The Lord is mindful of us”) is a joyful celebration of gratitude and blessedness that was probably composed to celebrate the wedding of the minister who had married Bach and his wife, Maria Barbara, about a year earlier. The Passion-themed orbit of this program finds its greatest resonance in a truly hypnotic and almost trance-inducing setting of the Saint Matthew Passion by Johann Theile. From its first movement to its last, Theile’s music mesmerizes the listener and grippingly captivates that attention until the final note.
