Musical mayhem comes to BLU Jazz+ and the Music Box! Bach’s hilarious cantata about the generation gap goes zany in the hands of Apollo's Fire and director Jeannette Sorrell. A Leipzig coffeehouse is the scene of a family drama as a precocious teenage girl keeps showing up against her father’s orders. The audience becomes the coffeehouse clientele as the comedy unfolds amongst the tables.
Bring the whole family! Suitable for ages 11* to 91.
GRAMMY®-winning ensemble Apollo's Fire invites you back to 1600, when musicians in Spain, Italy, and North Africa loved to jam on traditional folk tunes. Soprano Mira Fu-en Huang sings ballads of love and despair, while dueling violinists Alan Choo and Hanna Bingham join with friends on cello and lute to set sparks flying.
