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.)
