SUMMARY:Arizona Choir Presents \"Baroque Palms to Passion\"
DESCRIPTION:Attend a performance by the Arizona Choir\, the University of Arizona's premier choral ensemble of 34 graduate 
students\, conducted by Bruce Chamberlain\, director of choral activities. Please note that this concert will not be at
 3 p.m. as initially advertised in the season brochure.

\"Baroque Palms to Passion\" will feature two of the most important composers
 of the German Baroque\, Heinrich Schütz and Johann Sebastian Bach\, in two
 works that are intended for performance on Palm Sunday.

Bach's cantata BWV182 \"Himmelskönig\, sei willkommen\,\" (King of Heaven\, Thou art
 Welcome!) was written in 1714 in Weimar\, where the then only 29-year-old Bach 
was primarily an organist and only wrote \"occasional\" concerted music for 
choir and orchestra. The text\, written by the theologian\, Salamo Frank\, is
 based upon the scene of welcoming Jesus into Jerusalem.

\"St. John Passion\,\" SWV481\, by Heinrich Schütz employs the age-old tradition 
of a cappella soloists singing the roles of the Evangelist\, Jesus\, Pilate
 and Peter\, while the chorus performs the roles of the various crowds who 
are active in the passion account according to the Gospel of John.
