Bach + Boys = BRILLIANT! Christi Jones has crafted an accessible duet, adapting the accompaniment from J.S. Bach's Suite No. 3 in B minor. With optional notes to fill out some chords, men's ensembles of all sizes and abilities are sure to sound stellar, sophisticated, and elegant when performing this at any concert or festival.
This song should be performed with a sense of severity, yet should remain sensitive. Paying attention to the Latin syllabic stress and phrasing will help avoid clipping at the ends of phrases when the ensemble takes a breath.
