Belgian early music group Vox Luminis (Voice of Light) will explore work from one of history’s greatest composers, Bach, on Oct. 27. Though J.S. is the best known of the Bach family, many of his sons and other relatives also produced wonderful, moving music. Music from across the Bach lineage will be explored through a 10-person vocal ensemble, accompanied by five string players, organ and the theorbo. The theorbo is an incredibly long-necked lute instrument with an unmatched stage presence. Vox Luminis was founded in 2004 and has since become internationally recognized as one of the world’s premier vocal groups, consistently presenting a diverse range of 17th and 18th century European music.
