A Moment of Bach
Brandenburg Concerto No. 6: movement 1

A Moment of Bach

Welcome to our yearly miniseries on the Brandenburg Concertos of J. S. Bach!  Here we jump into Brandenburg 6, delighting in the weirdness that results when Bach decides to omit violins, preferring a dark, low sound of violas, violas de gamba, cello, and violone.  This brings us to some more examples across Bach's oeuvre, as well as some others by Brahms, Bruce Broughton, and John Williams.  As any creative person knows, setting limitations for yourself -- "no violins", for example -- is actually a good strategy for stimulating creativity, and results in a more unique creative output.  How fortunate for us, then, that Bach seems to agree. Brandenburg 6 - movement 1 - Netherlands Bach Society Other pieces that were used as audio examples: BWV 18 (cantata with 4 violas and no violins) - Netherlands Bach Society BWV 80 (Ein feste burg), middle movement (unison chorale) - Netherlands Bach Society Brahms - A German Requiem - movement 1: University of Chicago Orchestra, University Choir, Motet Choir, Members of the Rockefeller Chapel Choir, James Kallembach, conductor (recording used under Creative Commons Attribution Non-commercial No Derivatives 3.0 license) - refer to the first entry on this IMSLP page Other pieces that we talked about, but did not play as examples: Bruce Broughton - score from Tombstone (1993) - Gunfight at the O. K. Corral (4 bassoons can be heard in the first minute of this scene) John Williams - score from Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone (2001) - Hogwarts Forever (French horn quartet) (can be heard from 0:00 - 1:50)

Elizabeth Davenport was formally installed as sixth Dean of Rockefeller Memorial Chapel on November 9th, 2008. She began the ceremony by knocking on the chapel door and was invited in, saying, "Peace be to this house and all who enter here."James Kallembach, the University's Chorus Director, wrote a peaceful, celebratory anthem for the occasion based on Eastern and Western texts Davenport selected - all with wisdom as the theme. The celebration included readings and sacred dances, chanting by monks, traditional Medieval English dancers, and even a Chinese lion dance as a blessing to close the proceedings. Davenport presented gifts of hand bells and plants to represent harmony and growth. As Dean of the chapel, she will work with students to explore how they understand religion in today's world. "A smaller percentage than a generation ago has a strong sense of religious identity, but today, religion impacts the world at large, our news, and political debates," Davenport says. "We need to foster religiously literate citizens and ensure they understand what it is to live with an engaged pluralism that works for the 21st century."
