Easter and the spirt of Regeneration are embodied in the richly contrapuntal, harmonically complex, spiritually enlightened music of J. S. Bach. The hyphenated Bach works allude to Ferruccio Busoni and Egon Petri, pianist-composers of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, who arranged Bach’s organ and choral works for solo piano. The CUUC Choir is also on hand, with stirring selections to match the burgeoning season. Read on for programming details.
