APSU Chamber Singers to perform Bach’s Mass in G Minor April 26th-27th
April 9, 2013
Clarksville, TN – The German composer Johann Sebastian Bach wrote more than a thousand complex musical works in his lifetime, but modern audiences know only a few of the baroque musician’s masterful creations.
His Mass in B minor is one of his most played works, with some music scholars arguing that his reputation could rest on that composition alone.

Clarksville, TN – In 1731, the German composer Johann Sebastian Bach wrote his Sacred Cantata No. 4, also known as “Sleepers, Wake,” to be performed on the 27th Sunday after Trinity.
It’s a remarkably beautiful piece from the Baroque era, but the timing of its performance was a bit unfortunate.

Clarksville, TN – On a warm afternoon last spring, just as the bradford pear trees started blossoming around Clarksville, Austin Peay State University professor of music Dr. David Steinquest sat in his office, dreaming about the dark and gloomy month of October. He’d just heard a rumor that the department of music was purchasing a new Allen concert organ, and the haunting sounds of Johann Sebastian Bach’s Toccata in D minor, from “Phantom of the Opera,” played in his head.
