MARÍA GUINAND, GUEST CONDUCTOR

María Guinand, internationally lauded director of the Schola Cantorum de Venezuela, joins Seraphic Fire to weave a program that contrasts the heavenly love of Johann Sebastian Bach’s Jesu, meine Freude with secular, Spanish-language Renaissance and contemporary works on earthly themes of humor, desire, and the sea. Disparity and contradiction are on display in this thought-provoking program.

PROGRAM TO INCLUDE:

J.S. Bach: Jesu, meine Freude, BWV 227

Guido López Gavilán: El Guayaboso

Otilio Galíndez: Caramba mi amor 

José Antonio Calcaño: Evohé
