The main events of the 2009 Boulder Bach Festival were an organ concert, a symposium, and two large concerts that united the instrumental and choral music of the master. Timothy Krueger, Boulder Bach Festival chorus director, and Krista Bennion Feeney, violinist, led the March 13th and March 14th concerts of the March 2009 festival.
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 again prepared the chorus and conducted 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, served as guest concertmaster for the festival concerts and performed as soloist and leader of the instrumental works, including the Concerto for Two Violins in D minor and the Brandenburg No 3 in G major.
