The
Evening Concert Series: Handel’s Jephtha
and Zimmermann’s Kaffeehaus
Handel's great, profound, and moving last oratorio,
Jephtha, is a monumental drama of fathers and daughters,
of false pride, and of epic forgiveness. Join us for
our first ever performance of this masterpiece.Zimmermann's
Kaffeehaus in Leipzig, Germany was the site of almost
all of Bach's secular musical activities. It was there
that most of the secular cantatas and concertos were
given their first performances. It is in that spirit
that Emmanuel Music embarks upon a series of concerts
of the greatest of Bach's secular music.
