Dallas Symphony Presents Bach: Mass In B Minor

Principal Guest Conductor Claus Peter Flor and the renowned Dallas Symphony Chorus take on another choral tour de force with Bach's Mass in B minor. This unparalleled work was part of the composer's "sacred writing," influenced by his two loves: God and music. In his music is sadness, but more often joy, humor, vivacity, and reverence - and nowhere is that more evident than in his Mass in B minor.

An ongoing task, Bach began composing different movements in 1724 while the Credo dates around the end of his life in 1750. With this came one of Bach's masterpieces, one that was intended to not be approached as just art, but as an icon with feeling, passion, and emotion.

The concerts will take place on March 29 - 31. Tickets range from $15 to $100. -- www.dallassymphony.com
