Born two hundred years apart, the shared passion of these superstar composers is celebrated in this concert dedicated to Bach and Brahms. Brahms’ youthful yet torrid Sonatensanz for violin and piano coupled with the treasured F minor Concerto by J.S. Bach for keyboard and strings are featured solos. Dynamic soprano Tasha Koontz joins Camarada for a debut performance singing Brahms Op. 91 for voice, viola, and piano and one of the brilliant Italian Cantatas by J.S. Bach, Non sa che sia Dolore. Bach’s robust Orchestral Suite #2 for flute and string ensemble frames this program with narration by Robert J. Hughes.
