A sublime encounter with Dixit Dominus by George Frideric Handel, whose vocal virtuosity and expressive power make it one of the composer’s greatest choral achievements. Jesu, meine Freude by Johann Sebastian Bach also stands among the finest sacred works of the Baroque era. The program opens with a short yet deeply moving motet by Bach’s predecessor at St. Thomas Church in Leipzig.
