Texas Bach Choir

After their summer break, the Texas Bach Choir, an early music vocal ensemble will perform their premier concert of the 20092010 season. The musical term “a cappella” which means unaccompanied vocal music will allow the audience to enjoy the pure and unmitigated voices of this chorale. The concert will feature the works of four composers: Mendelssohn, Palestrina, Purcell and Monteverdi. This week, Texas Bach Choir Artistic Director, Dr. Daniel Long was interviewed by John Clare of Texas Public Radio’s Classical Spotlight and spoke at length about the ensemble and about the music being performed at this weekend’s concert. Long said that when the choir began it was more of a “Bach Choir” performing exclusively sacred music and only composers of the 19th century. However, recently the troupe is now including other early works that were composed in the first half of the 18th century.
