Holy Trinity Lutheran Church Bach Vespers: BWV 116 | November 24th, 2024, 5:00 PM
For at least the last eighteen centuries, some formula for prayer at the end of the day has been part of the Christian tradition. While no one knows precisely what the earliest form of Vespers looked like or sounded like, certain themes have managed to endure, including confession, gratitude, and light. While Vespers never quite became a significant part of Lutheran piety, that it is still kept at all in the Lutheran tradition may be thanks to one church: the Thomaskirche in Leipzig.

MasterVoices: Blind Injustice | February 3rd and 4th, 2025, 7:30 PM
Based on the eponymous book by Mark Godsey and casework by the Ohio Innocence Project, a 12-member cast brings us the exonerees’ stories in their own words, adapted by librettist David Cote to be both spoken and sung. Composer Scott Davenport Richards’ score calls on jazz, funk, and hip-hop to help convey the stories’ vastness and their particularity – the twisting of a child’s words, being in the wrong place at the wrong time, bearing a passing resemblance to someone else. Commissioned by Cincinnati Opera in 2019, it has only grown more relevant since its premiere.
