Timothy Krueger, Boulder Bach Festival chorus director, and Krista Bennion Feeney, violinist, will lead the concerts of the March 2009 festival, scheduled for March 13th and March 14th.

Krueger, founder and artistic director of the St. Martin’s Chamber Choir in Denver, auditioned and prepared the Boulder Bach Festival chorus for last season’s St. John Passion. This season he will again prepare the chorus and will conduct two choral works, Lutheran Mass No. 1 in F major and Lutheran Mass No. 2 in A major.

Feeney, the concertmaster of the Orchestra of St Luke’s and the Mostly Mozart Festival, both in New York City, will serve as guest concertmaster for the festival concerts and will be soloist and leader of the instrumental works, including the Concerto for Two Violins in D minor and the Brandenburg No 3 in G major.

“This is an exciting opportunity for the Boulder Bach Festival, our dedicated and future audiences, and our community,” said Carole Whitney, executive director. “Working with these two musicians will enrich the experience of our festival musicians and our audiences.”
