Oregon Bach Festival | Talbot: Path of Miracles
$25-$40 ($5 full time college student/ages 18 & under)
- Craig Hella Johnson, conductor
Join the OBF Chorus for a pilgrimage along the iconic Camino de Santiago. The contemporary choral work dramatizes the religious trek from the Pyrenees to Santiago de Compostella and the final resting place of Saint James. Conducted by Grammy-winner Craig Hella Johnson, Joby Talbot's Path of Miracles beautifully balances "excitement, doubt, revelation, fear, and triumph" (Second Inversion).
Join us for a free pre-concert lecture to enhance your listening experience about "Talbot: Path of Miracles," 1:45pm in Frohnymayer Music Building Room 163. More information: https://calendar.uoregon.edu/event/lets_talk_talbot_path_of_miracles
About Oregon Bach Festival Chorus
When Royce Saltzman and Helmuth Rilling founded the "Summer Festival of Music" in 1971, one of their first programming choices was Bach's St. John Passion. Knowing they'd need a chorus, Saltzman and Rilling set out to find the most talented voices in the community. Over the course of five decades, the Festival Chorus grew and evolved into the pinnacle of choral music performance. In 2001, Rilling and the OBF Chorus received the Grammy Award for their recording of Krzysztof Penderecki's Credo—a piece of epic size and sound that will hold its 25th anniversary celebratory performance during the 2023 Festival. The current chorus, led by Kathy Saltzman Romey, ranges from 15 to 54 musicians and features top-tier vocalists from prominent choruses and all four corners of the country.
