Oregon Bach Festival: Musical Offering with Monica Huggett
$25-$40 ($10 youth/college student with ID)
- Monica Huggett, baroque violin & conductor
- OBF Baroque Orchestra
In 1747, a weary and aging Bach visited his son C.P.E. in the Potsdam court of King Frederick of Prussia. Upon J.S.’s arrival, the king bellowed "Old Bach is here!" and proceeded to issue J.S. a challenge – compose a six-voice fugue based on a simple musical theme. From that challenge, the iconic "Musical Offering" was born, and the world was changed forever.
As of March 31, OBF performance spaces no longer require mandatory face masks or proof of vaccination. The venues do welcome and encourage patrons who wish to, to continue wearing masks while attending performances.
