On October 24th at Van Buren Hall, works of Bach and Mozart celebrate vocal and instrumental marvels of the baroque and classical eras. Bach’s reassuring solo Cantata 170 marks mezzo-soprano Kameryn Lueng’s fifth CITV appearance. A graduate of Bard’s Graduate Vocal Arts Program and 2019 Tanglewood Vocal Fellow, Lueng is currently pursuing advanced studies in Cleveland. Solo Cantata 51, well-known for its vocal and trumpet fireworks, follows, and will feature Burmese-American soprano Robin Steitz, an Eastman School of Music Graduate and former Tanglewood Vocal Fellow. Two of the best-known concert arias of Mozart will be sung by soloists previously appearing in CITV’s 2019 performance of Bach’s Mass in B Minor. Both are graduates of Bard’s Graduate Vocal Arts Program. Soprano Jardena Gertler-Jaffe sings “Bella mia fiamma, addio” and tenor Maximillian Jansen sings “Misero! O sogno.” To conclude the October program the Broad Street Orchestra performs Mozart’s Symphony 29, a work of strength and elegance often regarded as the first of the composer’s mature symphonies.
