Spiritus presents Seasons of the Soul, Featuring the masters of Baroque: Steffani, Vivaldi, Bach, and Handel.

Since its founding by Artistic Director Kenneth Hull in 2009, Spiritus Ensemble has performed over 25 of Bach’s cantatas, as well as motets and other works by J.S. Bach, Johann Christoph Bach, Vivaldi, Schütz, Buxtehude, Homilius, Bruhns, Kuhnau, Rheinberger, Benjamin Britten, James MacMillan, and Morten Lauridsen.

Many of Spiritus Ensemble’s Bach cantata performances take place within a liturgical context, accompanied by the readings on which they were intended as commentary as well as congregational chorales and hymns. These events form an ongoing series of ‘Bach Vespers’ with free admission performances at which donations are welcomed.

Other performances are more like traditional concerts, though often with an underlying liturgical or ritual shape. The performances in this series are our ‘In Concert’ events. Admission to these is by purchased ticket.
