About this Event
HOW BRIGHTLY SHINES
Sunday, May 26th | 4 PM
Eastminster United Church (310 Danforth Ave)
DIRECTED BY JOHN ABBERGER
No festival would be complete without a generous sampling of Bach’s matchless vocal music, and our final concert How Brightly Shines will not disappoint. We’ll hear two settings of the beautiful chorale “Wie schön leuchtet der Morgenstern” (“How brightly shines the Morningstar”), one by Johann Kuhnau, Bach’s predecessor at the Thomas Kirche, and one by Bach himself. The artistry of guest soloist Yeree Suh will be featured in several arias, and there will be other cantatas to bring the festival to a joyous conclusion - not to be missed!

Yeree Suh and Sinéad White, sopranos
Daniel Taylor and Nicholas Burns, altos

Jesse Blumberg and Martin Gomes, basses
