NEW YEAR'S CONCERT – Mezzo-soprano and Organ
Kloster Mariastein
Klosterplatz 2, 4115 Mariastein
Sarina Weber and Georg Grass open the concert season with music centered on Mary—from Bach’s “Schlafe, mein Liebster” to Poulenc—framed by Bach’s grand Prelude and Fugue in E-flat major.
Entering the New Year with confidence and musical radiance: The New Year’s Concert spans an entire millennium of music history. Mezzo-soprano Sarina Weber and organist Georg Grass explore the Christmas narrative centered on Mary as the Mother of God from a variety of perspectives—from Paul Hofhaimer’s Renaissance-inspired sounds and Johann Sebastian Bach’s lullaby-like “Schlafe, my Beloved” to Francis Poulenc and on to contemporary works. The festive framework is provided by one of Bach’s most monumental organ works: the radiant Prelude in E-flat major at the beginning and the majestic Fugue at the end. A multifaceted and inspiring start to the new concert year.
