Bach at Noon: When Cupid Strikes
1475 Catalina Boulevard, San Diego, 92107
Cost: Free
February's Bach at Noon program "When Cupid Strikes" explores some of the darker aspects of love: loneliness, suffering, and betrayal. It pairs cantatas by Venetian master Antonio Vivaldi (Qual per ignoto calle-- "When on an unknown road", composed for the Saxon court of Dresden), with one of the tiny handful written in the Italian language by J.S. Bach: Amore traditore-- "Love the Traitor". John Polhamus, bass Mindy Ella Chu, mezzo soprano Heather Vorwerck, cello Ruben Valenzuela, harpsichord
