A Mix of Bach
Program: Biscuits & Bach
Aired: Sunday, August 29, 2021 @ 7:00 am
Hosted by Rachel Stewart
We've got plenty of favorites by Bach this week including selections from the Goldberg Variations, the Brandenburg Concerto No. 2, and the Cantata BWV 77 written for this week in the liturgical year. And we also have selections by baroque composers whose names you may never have heard — Giovanni Paolo Colonna, Grzegorz Gerwazy Gorczycki, and Giuseppe Aldrovandini — who deserve a listen.
