The Biblical Sonatas of Johann Kuhnau

Larry Molinaro, harpsichord

On November 17^th, we’ll take a look at the legacy of Kuhnau himself through his famous biblical sonatas for keyboard.  These six sonatas, published in 1700, were ground-breaking in that they used a wide variety of musical devices to portray action, emotions, and even psychological states.  The concert will include selections from The Fight between David and Goliath, Jacob’s Wedding, Hezekiah’s sickness and restoration, and Jacob’s Death and Burial.
