PodiumTalk! with Christopher Dawes
The Sublime and the Intimate: Schweitzer's two sides of the Mass in B minor
before performance at 7 pm

Albert Schweitzer described the duality in Bach's Mass in B minor as "...one in which the sublime and intimate co-exist side by side, as do the Catholic and Protestant elements, all being as enigmatic and unfathomable as the religious consciousness of the work's creator."

Organist and musicologist Christopher Dawes talks about Schweitzer's compelling take on Bach.
