Following a highly acclaimed debut at last year’s festival, we are pleased to present our Kaffeehaus concert again this year. Join us in a relaxed café setting as we regale you with a complete performance of Bach’s Hunt Cantata, including the famous aria “Sheep may safely graze,” together with movements from Brandenburg Concerto No. 1. We are also looking forward to presenting guest soloist Yeree Suh, the noted soprano now established in Stuttgart, in her Toronto Bach Festival debut. The spacious acoustic of the Church of the Holy Trinity (by the CF Toronto Eaton Centre) will provide an excellent location for our recreation of Zimmermann’s Leipzig coffee house, and the beloved Canadian actor RH Thomson will once again preside as Herr Zimmermann.Featuring Yeree Suh, soprano; Ellen McAteer, soprano; Charles Daniels, tenor; Jesse Blumberg, bass; and  the Toronto Bach Festival Orchestra.
