What greater way to celebrate the joy of music than with two of the most popular masterworks from two of the greatest of Baroque composers: Handel’s “Ode for St Cecilia’s Day”, HWV 76 and Bach’s Cantata “Jauchzet Gott in allen Landen”, BWV 51 in the glorious acoustic of St Peter’s Cathedral.
St Cecilia was known as the patron saint of music and musicians, with her Feast Day commemorating her life and death on 22 November 230 AD. Handel’s Ode takes the poem of John Dryden of 1687 and sets it in exuberant and joyful creativity.
Adelaide Baroque’s Bach and Handel: Orchestral Series 4 is at St Peter’s Cathedral, Adelaide on Saturday, 16th of November
