Arvo Pärt: PassioSt. James Cathedral Cantorei & Chamber Orchestra
conducted by Joseph Adam
Cantorei, the professional vocal ensemble of Seattle’s St. James Cathedral, sings Arvo Pärt's Passio with chamber orchestra, a masterwork of minimalism and tintinnabuli.
"Tintinnabuli is the mathematically exact connection from one line to another.....tintinnabuli is the rule where the melody and the accompaniment [accompanying voice]...is one. One and one, it is one—it is not two. This is the secret of this technique." – from a conversation between Arvo Pärt and Antony Pitts recorded for BBC Radio 3 at the Royal Academy of Music in London on 29 March 2000, as printed in the liner notes of the Naxos Records release of Passio.

Baroque Brilliance
Saturday, March 14th, 2026 at 8:00 p.m.
With pre-concert concert talk at 7:00 pm by director Freddie Coleman
Saint Mark’s Cathedral, 1245 10th Ave East, Seattle, WA
Featured Works:
Mass in G minor, BWV 235 by Johann Sebastian Bach
Dixit Dominus by George Frideric Handel
Seattle Choral Company
Freddie Coleman, conductor
Natalie Ingrisano, soprano
Maria Mannisto, soprano
José Luis Muñoz, countertenor
Stephen Rumph, tenor
Charles Robert Stephens, baritone
Members of the North Corner Chamber Orchestra
Baroque Brilliance showcases the sacred mastery of two of the era’s greatest composers—Johann Sebastian Bach and George Frideric Handel—through works that highlight their contrasting yet complementary voices.
Bach’s Mass in G minor, composed in Leipzig in the 1730s, is one of his four Lutheran Masses setting only the Kyrie and Gloria. Drawing on earlier cantata material, Bach crafts a deeply reflective and refined work, rich in counterpoint and spiritual depth.
In contrast, Handel’s Dixit Dominus, written in 1707 during his time in Rome, bursts with youthful energy and dramatic flair. Setting Psalm 110 in Latin, this virtuosic and exuberant work reveals the young composer’s early command of the Italian Baroque style.
Together, these works offer a vivid portrait of Baroque sacred music at its most brilliant—intimate and majestic, disciplined and dazzling.
