Fri 4/15 – Sun 4/17
World-renown soloists, Cleveland Orchestra musicians and Baldwin-Wallace College Conservatory faculty and students will perform some of the world’s greatest music at the 79th Annual Bach Festival. And how cool is this: Baldwin-Wallace’s fest is the oldest collegiate Bach Festival in the world!
Details: “Dwight Oltman, in his 36th year as Festival music director, will welcome to campus international vocal soloists: Suzie LeBlanc, soprano; Juliana Gondek, mezzo-soprano; Benjamin Butterfield, tenor; and Daniel Lichti, bass-baritone. This year’s Festival also will include Musica Pacifica, harpsichordist Jory Vinikour, and other esteemed Baldwin-Wallace and guest performers. Also participating in the event are B-W Conservatory of Music students, who will join with this year’s internationally respected soloists in performing Bach’s major works.”
