alocispepraluger102 Posted December 15, 2011 Report Share Posted December 15, 2011 (edited) WKCR presents the annual Bach Festival, featuring music of Johann Sebastian Bach exclusively from 3pm on Thursday 12/22 till midnight on Saturday 12/31. As a supplementary theme accordance with this year's fundraiser, BachFest 2011 will broadcast all Bach-related material from the WKCR archives. By exploring the archives, WKCR Classical can strengthen the quality of BachFest 2011 as well as the online audio gallery (in addition to adding retroactively to the archive festival). As per the specific schedule, BachFest 2011 will heavily feature guest DJs: performers, composers, and musicologists from the NYC area who will plan sets a la the Jazz Department's Musician's Show. BachFest 2011 will also focus on the odds and ends: microtonal Bach, Jazz-meets-Bach, Bach bluegrass, and other potpourri programs to supplement Bach proper. More information about these shows will be posted before the festival.
