This program marks life's milestones with J.S. Bach's joyous birthday serenata Durchlauchtigster Leopold!, the US premiere of Johann Rosenmüller's festive wedding cantata, Es muB dir, wertes Paar, and Bach's unswerving embrace of earthly life's end, Komm, du suBe Todesstunde, all bookended by vocal concertos for the new year - and the inexorability of time - by Michael Praetorius: Nun helft mir Gottes Gütes preisen and Das alte Jahr ist nun vergahn. Performances will take place at the Presbyterian Church of Chestnut Hill and at the American Philosophical Society in Center City.
