About this Event
Three Notch’d Road explores the healing power of music with a program of memory, hope, and farewell. As remembrance of the dead during the month of November is ancient custom, we welcome you to join us for this musical exploration of the German Baroque, English & Spanish Renaissance, and American sacred music.
The young J.S. Bach’s cantata BWV 106 “Actus Tragicus,” written for a funeral, features violas da gamba and recorders and contains some of the most hope-filled music Bach ever wrote. English texts include joyful American hymnody, Henry Purcell’s “Evening Hymn,” Thomas Campion’s “Never weather-beaten sail,” and American composer David Hughes’ (b.1980) “May He Support Us All The Day Long” (text by St. John Henry Newman).
