We will reconvene in Zimmermann’s Kafe to enjoy one of Bach’s great secular cantatas, Hercules at the Crossroads, written for the birthday of the 11 year old Friedrich Christian, son of the Elector of Saxony. Never one to waste his best efforts, Bach re-purposed much of the music in this cantata when he wrote the more well-known Christmas Oratorio of 1734. The laid-back atmosphere of our Kaffeehaus will allow you to experience this sparkling work in a setting much like that of its premier performance – shows always sell out!
