The majestic stone sanctuary of St. Peter's Episcopal Church in Morristown provides the perfect resonant setting as Music in the Somerset Hills Artistic Director, Stephen Sands, leads an exquisite collaboration between a professional vocal octet celebrating milestone anniversaries of two titans of sacred music.

Experience Bach's luminous Cantata 3, crafted exactly 300 years ago, performed with historical authenticity and breathtaking precision alongside works by the British master Orlando Gibbons, whose innovative harmonies have captivated audiences for four centuries since his birth.

In this architectural gem where soaring Gothic arches meet transcendent song, these seasoned performers bring to life the intricate counterpoint and soaring melodies of the Baroque era, allowing audiences to discover why these compositions continue to move hearts across generations.
