| In the Cornell Concert Series' final event of the season, violinist Christoph Poppen and the four singers of the Hilliard Ensemble explore the coded references and hidden messages contained in Johann Sebastian Bach's most famous work for solo violin, the monumental Chaconne for solo violin, Friday, May 2, at 8 p.m. in Sage Chapel. In a stunning tour de force of speculative musicology and virtuosic music-making, Poppen and the Hilliard Ensemble offer an intense, romantic experience to the concert-goer as they open a window on Bach's thought processes at a time he was deeply affected by the sudden and tragic death of his first wife, Maria Barbara. Tickets for the concert -- $15-$24 for adults and $9-$14 for students -- are on sale at the Willard Straight Hall ticket office (255-3430) and from the Cornell Concert Series Web site at |
