Bach Magnificat at the Chan Centre for the Performing Arts at UBC, December 18, 2016 at 3pm. Hailed as one of J.S. Bach’s greatest masterpieces for choir and orchestra and written for Christmas Vespers in 1723, this performance includes four rarely heard and delightful inserts that illuminate the Nativity story.
