Recorded live on December 14, 2014, at The Broward Center for the Performing Arts in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. Performed by the Chamber Singers ensemble of the Girl Choir of South Florida. Artistic Director: Wallis Peterson, Percussion: Bradley Peterson. This indigenous community, often referred to as The Colorados, is located in the northern coastal region of Ecuador. In the face of modernization, music serves as a tool for this group to preserve their history, traditions, and culture. Tsáchilas music-making includes dance, philosophy, spirituality, cultural traditions, and community involvement with a strong connection to nature and respect for the land. By singing this piece, our ensemble is actively helping to protect and promote the Tsáchila community. A portion of the proceeds from our purchase of the score has been sent to the community to assist in the preservation of their culture. TRANSLATION Beautiful woma...    less

Treib, Herr, von uns ferndie unreinen Geister, Halt die Nachtwacht gern,sei selbst unser Schutzherr! Schirm beid Leib und Seel' Unter deine Flügel, send uns dein Engel! Laß uns einschlafenmit gu-ten Gedanen, fröhlich aufwachenund von dir nicht wanken; Laß uns mit Züchten Unser Tun und Dichten Zu deim Preis richten! 夜曲 夜晚來臨，該是我們休息之時； 上主無所不在，以祂的良善美意保佑著我們。 我們躺臥， 在祂不變的祝福之下， 平安永存。 主啊，使我們遠離不淨的靈魂 助我們守夜，做我們的守護者！ 庇蔭我們的軀體和靈魂， ...    less

The evangelist tells the story, arias convey the inner feelings of us humans as we gaze upon the Golgotha scene and choruses and chorales reflect on our own place in the drama. Bach's incredible work of art stands alone in its complete telling of the crucifixion story in a manner which stirs and moves the soul of the performer and listener. This is a mountaintop experience not to be missed.  less
