Our Platinum Anniversary season opens with a salute to Anchorage’s Basically Bach Festival of the 1970s and 1980s, a parent organization of today’s Anchorage Festival of Music. This concert features pieces from Basically Bach’s original programs juxtaposed with intriguing trivia, reminiscences, and projected historical images. Hear great music from the renaissance through baroque eras and learn about (or remember) a seminal and somewhat spicy chapter of Anchorage’s musical history.The program includes selections from J. S. Bach’s Well-Tempered Clavier, Musical Offering, a Handel trio sonata with bird calls, and Basically Bach’s signature "Bach Singspiel” that invites the audience to group-sing Bach chorales. All pieces will be performed on period instruments. As an extra layer of authenticity, we return to one of Basically Bach’s original venues where we will showcase our beautiful double-manual harpsichord, inherited from the Basically Bach Festival.
