Osher Lifelong Learning Institute Class: Bach Mass in B minor

Join Maestro Philip Brunelle as he introduces OLLI members to the unique musical/visual experience of the VocalEssence performance of Bach’s Mass in B minor.  Then, savor the majestic  beauty of this great work at St. Olaf Catholic Church, as you have never experienced it before, with a simultaneous screening of German director Bastian Cleve’s film The Sound of Eternity, a lavish visual interpretation of Bach’s magnum opus, constructed of 27 short dialogue-free films that correspond to the 27-part musical structure of the Mass.
