The Coffee Cantata by JS Bach

Join us after the Kingston community dinner on Valentine's Day for the charming "Coffee Cantata" Schweigt stille, plaudert nicht (Be still, stop chattering), BWV 211,[a] also known as the Coffee Cantata, is a secular cantata by Johann Sebastian Bach. He composed it probably between 1732 and 1735. Although classified as a cantata, it is essentially a miniature comic opera. In a satirical commentary, the cantata amusingly tells of an addiction to (or rather dependence on) coffee. Featured performers: Veronica Deraleau, soprano, Derek Sellers, tenor Robert Wise, baritone and John Burkhardt, piano. FREE (donations accepted to support future programming.)
