BACHanalia ‘25

A REAL BAROQUE BLAST!

Friday, March 28, 4:00 - 10:00 PM

Join us for a joyous Cathedral tradition!

Our free mini BACH-marathon promises six hours of Music City artists performing the maestro’s works in styles ranging from authentic to astounding. Chamber to Big Band harpsichord to accordion! Over 100 professional and emerging musicians from the community share their gifts in this Nashville tradition that features instrumental and vocal works by the master of Western music, J.S. Bach. Many friends will return this year, among them Blair Professor of Composition Michael Rose, the Saxophone Quartet, Sam Levine’s Jazz Combo, Parthenon Chamber Orchestra, Music City Baroque and Jared Hauser. New artists joining the line-up are Karen Krieger on accordion, pianists Mark Wait and Amy Dorfman, the Nashville Chamber Music Society, Vocal Arts Nashville and the Blair Big Band under Ryan Middaugh.

As usual, light refreshments and souvenirs will be on sale. Come and go as you like all evening – or stay all 6 hours!
