About the Event
The Cantata Trail is an exploration of Johann Sebastian Bach’s music, with special focus on his cantatas and other vocal works.
The Cantata Trail hosts virtual and in person workshops in which your host Miguel Rodé introduces each piece via its historical context and liturgical purpose, and shares some light musical analysis to enable a much deeper appreciation of Bach’s superlative artistry. During the sessions we listen to musical excerpts or even entire works if time allows, and we share reference materials such as librettos, scores, and program notes via the Cantata Trail website.
The Seattle Bach Festival is partnering with The Cantata Trail to bring you these workshops. Join your fellow Bach enthusiasts in these lively discussions and amplify your enjoyment of the Festival’s programs!
