Go for Baroque ...

Sorry about the headline :-)

There are many fine events taking place this month, and in the next few days I'll try to highlight a few that strike me as particularly noteworthy. For a really comprehensive listing of regional events, I recommend visiting Hudson Valley Connoisseur magazine's Web site, where we have an interactive searchable calendar with thousands of listings!

This sounds like a "don't miss" event: I adore Baroque music and the Richard B. Fisher Center for the Performing Arts Center at Bard College is a wonderful concert venue.

BARD'S MUSIC PROGRAM PRESENTS VOCAL CONCERT ON DECEMBER 12 AT THE FISHER CENTER

Featuring Works by Bach and Vivaldi

The 8 p.m. program in the center's Sosnoff Theater includes Bach's Cantata 21 (“Ich hatte viel Bekümmernis”) and Vivaldi's Gloria in D Major. The featured vocal soloists, tenor Rufus Müller and bass Arthur Burrows, are both distinguished Bach singers and are on the Bard faculty. They will be joined by undergraduate soloists.
Tickets are $5, and admission is free for Bard students and children age 12 and under. To order tickets please call the Box Office at 845-758-7900
