Dear Patrons, Laura Ingalls Wilder wrote, “Our hearts grow tender with childhood memories and love of kindred, and we are better throughout the year for having, in spirit, become a child again at Christmas-time.”

As a musician, I know the power of music, but during the holiday season this power seems magnified. It is as if we hear the songs with our hearts, not just with our ears.

When selecting repertoire for our A Classic Christmas program, I’m drawn not only to musical quality but also to emotional content as well as to one other very special aspect we can proudly boast. All the works on this program have been arranged specifically for the Bach Festival Choir and Orchestra by composers who are, or have been, one of us. These pieces were written by individuals who know us, who know you, and who share a desire to bring our audience extraordinary music. In this way, the music comes from their heart through ours en route to yours.

During the holiday season, Bach Festival Society is also proud to present Central Florida’s own Voctave, one of the finest vocal ensembles on the professional musical scene. Perfectly scheduled just days before Christmas, this concert will feature fabulous arrangements of favorites performed with the group’s trademark pristine blend. Between our A Classic Christmas, A Voctave Christmas, and Christmas in the Park, the Bach Festival Society is set to bring the best of holiday cheer to our community.

Dr. Seuss reminded us, “Christmas will always be as long as we stand heart to heart and hand in hand.” So, from our hands, hearts, and voices, thank you for allowing us to be a part of your holiday season. We truly hope you feel the same love and joy our musicians experience while making this music.

With love and gratitude, John Sinclair Artistic Director and Conductor Bach Festival Society of Winter Park

ABOUT THE BACH FESTIVAL SOCIETY OF WINTER

PARK

The Bach Festival Society of Winter Park’s mission is to inspire the human spirit through extraordinary music, featuring powerful choral performances and innovative programming that celebrates the legacy of J.S. Bach. The 88th Season offers a dynamic array of world-class musicians and vocalists performing classical masterworks and contemporary compositions that will delight, challenge, and inspire listeners. Founded in 1935 at Rollins College, the Bach Festival Society continues to secure critical acclaim for its artistic excellence and its commitment to elevating new music while celebrating traditional composers.

ARTISTIC DIRECTOR AND CONDUCTOR

John V. Sinclair enjoys a national reputation as a conductor of choral masterworks while locally being known as one of the hardest-working and in demand artists of the Central Florida cultural community. In his 33rd season as Artistic Director and Conductor of the Bach Festival Society, he continues his imaginative programming, creative interpretations, and expressive conducting.

Dr. Sinclair, known as a master teacher, is Director of Music at Rollins College and holds the John M. Tiedtke Endowed Chair. As a career educator, Sinclair keeps the Society’s educational focus vital by providing a broad range of musical programs and experiences for individuals of all ages. As a conductor who is equally adept at directing choral and orchestral music, he has been referred to as Central Florida’s “resident conductor.” He has appeared as conductor for more than a thousand performances in addition to his work as clinician and lecturer throughout the United States and other countries. The Bach Festival, under his leadership, has achieved international recognition by touring in Europe, producing nationally released CDs and broadcasts, and performing with the London Symphony Orchestra and the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra.

Dr. Sinclair holds a masters and doctoral degree from the University of Missouri-Kansas City’s Conservatory of Music. His undergraduate school, William Jewell College honored him with its most prestigious Citation for Achievement. In addition to editing and interpreting historical choral works through the Moravian Music Foundation, he has authored an anecdotal book entitled Falling Off the Podium, and Other Life Lessons. The late Wall Street Journal’s arts critic, Terry Teachout wrote, “John is a gifted conductor, a great educator, and the best of all possible colleagues.” For more than three decades, John Sinclair has shared his talent and dedication to musical excellence with the Central Florida community and beyond.

MARY WILSON , soprano

Soprano Mary Wilson is acknowledged as one of today's most exciting artists. Cultivating a wide-ranging career singing chamber music, oratorio, and operatic repertoire, her “bright soprano seems to know no terrors, wrapping itself seductively around every phrase” (Dallas Morning News).

In demand on the concert stage, she has appeared with Los Angeles Philharmonic, Philadelphia Orchestra, Cleveland Orchestra, Cincinnati Symphony Orchestra, St. Paul Chamber Orchestra, Los Angeles Master Chorale, Detroit Symphony, and at the Hollywood Bowl. An exciting interpreter of Baroque repertoire, she has appeared with Philharmonia Baroque, American Bach Soloists, Boston Baroque, Grand Rapids Bach Festival, Bach Society of St. Louis, Baltimore Handel Choir, Brooklyn Academy of Music, the Carmel Bach Festival, and our own Bach Festival of Winter Park. With the IRIS Chamber Orchestra, she sang the world premiere of the song cycle Songs Old and New written especially for her by Ned Rorem.

On the opera stage, Ms. Wilson is especially noted for her portrayals of Susannah in Le Nozze di Figaro and Gilda in Rigoletto. She has appeared with Minnesota Opera, Boston Lyric Opera, Arizona Opera, Tulsa Opera, and the Goodman Theatre.

An accomplished pianist, Ms. Wilson holds performance degrees from St. Olaf College in Northfield, Minnesota, and Washington University in St. Louis, Missouri. She is currently an Assistant Professor of Voice at the University of Memphis.

KEVIN DEAS , bass-baritone

Kevin Deas has gained international renown as one of America’s leading bass-baritones and is perhaps most acclaimed for his signature portrayal of the title role in Gershwin’s Porgy and Bess, having performed it with the New York Philharmonic, Philadelphia Orchestra, St. Paul Chamber Orchestra, and the Pacific Symphony. He has appeared with the Ravinia Festival, Vail Festival, Saratoga Festival, and at Italy’s Spoleto Festival in a new production of Menotti’s Amahl and the Night Visitors in honor of the composer’s birthday, recorded on video for international release.

Kevin’s past seasons include performances of Mozart’s Requiem; Beethoven’s Missa Solemns; Mahler’s Symphony No. 8; Handel’s Messiah with the National Cathedral, Boston Baroque, Cleveland Orchestra, and New York Philharmonic; Beethoven’s Symphony No. 9, Bach’s St. John Passion, Haydn’s The Creation, Puccini’s Missa di Gloria, and Nathaniel Dett’s The Ordering of Moses with Bach Festival Society of Winter Park; Verdi’s Requiem; Elgar’s Dream of Geronitus; Copland’s Old American Songs with the Chicago Symphony; Rachmaninoff’s The Bells with JoAnn Falletta at SUNY Potsdam; Bach’s St. Matthew Passion with the Oratorio Society of New York; and Paul Moravec’s critically acclaimed opera The Shining with Opera Colorado.

A strong proponent of contemporary music, his 20-year collaboration with the late jazz legend Dave Brubeck has taken him to Salzburg, Vienna, and Moscow.

Kevin Deas has recorded Wagner’s Die Meistersinger with the Chicago Symphony under the late Sir Georg Solt; Bach’s Mass in B Minor and Handel’s Acis and Galatea; Haydn’s Die Schöpfung with the Virginia Symphony and Boston Baroque; and the world premiere recording of Dvorák’s Hiawatha Melodrama and the composer’s own arrangement of Goin’ Home with the PostClassical Ensemble.

Long-time Bach Festival Choir members Beth and Jack Nagle understand the enormous contribution a world-class soloist brings to a choral work and have established an endowment to help ensure that the Bach Festival Society will always have the resources to engage the very best talent. Income from the endowment will be used for the financial support of bass soloists singing with the Bach Festival Society. The Nagles have chosen to name their endowment in honor of bass-baritone Kevin Deas, who is featured in this afternoon’s performance of Verdi’s Requiem

“We have had the joy and privilege of singing with Kevin with the Bach Festival Choir and the Berkshire Choral Institute for over 25 years. We so admire his wonderful voice, hard work and kind heart, and are so pleased to honor and immortalize him through this gift!”

*Donors recognized for their gifts and pledges received in support of the 2022-2023 Season prior to publication date of this program guide. We apologize for any errors or omissions.

The Bach Festival Society of Winter Park was founded in 1935 at Rollins College to commemorate the 250th anniversary of Johann Sebastian Bach’s birth by presenting the composer’s orchestral and choral music to the public for its “enlightenment, education, pleasure, and enjoyment.” The Society decided early on to operate in partnership with Rollins College while still maintaining its status as a fully independent non-profit organization.

Mrs. Isabelle Sprague-Smith, a former New York artist and school principal, was the president and driving force behind the Bach Festival Society from 1935 until her death in 1950. At Mrs. Sprague-Smith’s death, the future of the Bach Festival Society was uncertain. Rollins President Hugh McKean asked John M. Tiedtke, the treasurer of Rollins College, a music lover and an astute businessman, to fill the opening and he agreed. Mr. Tiedtke served as Chairman of the Board of Trustees until his death in December 2004. Under his leadership, the Bach Festival Society expanded its programming to include two additional choral programs beyond the Annual Festival, top-tier visiting soloists and ensembles, and community events in Winter Park.

Following Mr. Tiedtke’s death, the Society began a period of modernization and growth. Today, the Society maintains an all-volunteer choir of over 185 singers from throughout Central Florida and a professional orchestra of nearly 50 members. We present nearly 30 ticketed performances, dozens of in-school educational programs, a high school choral festival, and several community concerts; we produce recordings, present the Young at Heart Chorale, and form high-level artistic partnerships reaching approximately 50,000 people annually.

The Bach Festival Society is the third-oldest continuously operating Bach Festival in the United States and Central Florida’s longest-running performing arts organization. We maintain a strong partnership with Rollins College and provide high-quality performance and learning opportunities to students, faculty, and staff.
