Giveaways: Seraphic Fire’s Enlightenment Festival in South Florida

Seraphic Fire is bringing back the Enlightenment Festival this February, with two back-to-back weeks of Bach. The third annual Enlightenment Festival will offer performances that exemplify what Seraphic Fire does best—Bach—featuring two of the composer’s greatest oratorios. And, if you keep reading below, you may just be lucky enough to see a performance for free!

FESTIVAL PROGRAM WEEK 1: Life | Death

Thu, Feb 16, 7:30 p.m.  |  Miami  | St. Sophia Greek Orthodox Cathedral

Fri, Feb 17, 7:30 p.m.  |  Coral Gables  | St. Philip’s Episcopal

Sat, Feb 18, 7:30 p.m.  |  Ft. Lauderdale  | All Saints Episcopal

Sun, Feb 19, 4:00 p.m.  |  Miami Beach  | All Souls Episcopal

During an age of high mortality, Johann Sebastian Bach experienced the stark and tenuous nature of life and death firsthand. As a result, Bach’s music of human existence and death is, unsurprisingly, probing and profound.

 

FESTIVAL PROGRAM WEEK 2: Beginning | End

Thu, Feb 23, 7:00 p.m.  |  Naples  | Vanderbilt Presbyterian

Fri, Feb 24, 8:00 p.m.  |  Coral Gables  | Church of the Little Flower

Sat, Feb 25, 7:30 p.m.  |  Ft. Lauderdale  | All Saints Episcopal

Sun, Feb 26, 4:00 p.m.  |  Boca Raton  | St. Gregory’s Episcopal

Joyous arrivals and awe-inspiring departures are featured in the closing concert of Seraphic Fire’s third annual Enlightenment Festival. Selections from Johann Sebastian Bach’s Christmas Oratorio portray an expectant mother and and the Magi searching for that child.
