A setting of Psalm 51, Tilge, Höchster, meine Sünden (BWV 1083 J. S. Bach) is Johann Sebastian Bach’s arrangement made in the 1740s of Pergolesi’s Stabat Mater from 1736. If you attended the stunning concert on Good Friday in 2022, this concert builds upon that and presents Pergolesi’s work with Bach’s added Baroque finesse and style.

violin, concertmaster
David Felberg, violin
