With our new BEYOND BACH Concert Series, we have delivered! Our first installment of BEYOND BACH concerts will feature the music of Mozart and Beethoven. Because as great as Bach is, we all know that there is more.

Beethoven’s ideal world was located in the future, a utopia to which humankind could aspire. His uplifting music reminds us that the struggle for peace and brotherhood is worth the toil, and his remarkable ability to fuse comedy and tragedy has the power to deescalate tension and make troubles seem trivial.  His unrivaled ability to explore the full range of human experience—birth, struggle, death, and resurrection—makes his music both life-affirming and life-changing.

Mozart’s music is simply exquisite. It’s hard not to listen to his music without feeling overcome and overjoyed with the ‘rightness’ of it all. Mozart’s phrases balance each other with flawless precision. Mozart’s view of the world was so magnificently constructed that an entire era was named “Classical” after the music that he composed during his lifetime. Music critics likened it the classic, eye-pleasing architecture of the ancient Greeks. Mozart’s music is buoyant–it truly can enhance one’s optimism in the human spirit!

In honor of these two master composers, Bach in Baltimore is proud to announce two concerts of the BEYOND BACH Series, which are sponsored in part by WBJC, Maryland’s Classical Music Station:
