Calvin Presbyterian Church

In a nod to the TCC’s founding passion to showcase brilliant but lesser-known German Baroque masters, this concert celebrates the music of Johann Rudolph Ahle (1625–73) on the 400th anniversary of his birth. Ahle was born in the Thuringian town of Mühlhausen, where he served as organist, town councillor, and even mayor. The Mühlhausen organist post was passed to his son and then to J.S. Bach, who worked there briefly in 1707–08. Ahle composed magnificent motets, radiant sacred concertos, and tuneful hymns and also wrote an important treatise on choral singing. The TCC will be joined by Baroque strings, organ, and soloists from the Toronto Chamber Consort.
