Bach Musica NZ welcomes young award-winning pianist, Madeleine Xiao, as soloist in Mozart's famous Piano Concerto in d minor.

In the second half of the concert, the much lauded Bach Musica NZ chorus and orchestra present the 45-minute glorious Magnificat by C.P.E. Bach, the most gifted son of J.S. Bach. They are joined by vocal soloists Joanna Foote (soprano), 2024 Lexus Song Quest winner Katie Trigg (alto), Taliai Fifita (tenor) and Edward Larenson (baritone).

The concert is conducted by Bach Musica NZ's Music & Artistic Director, Rita Paczian.

 

"Bach Musica NZ offers a great shout of joy

With a lively Rita Paczian on harpsichord, surrounded by her string players, Bach’s Gloria opened with a high celebration and ended with another, chorus and full orchestra giving their considerable all."
