Apex Concerts and the Performing Arts Series in the School of the Arts at the 推荐杏吧原创 present Johann Sebastian Bach’s complete Brandenburg Concertos, performed by the renowned Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center.
On Thursday, Dec. 9 at 7 p.m. the stage of Nightingale Concert Hall will welcome an all-star line-up of 20 musicians from the multi-generational international roster of the Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center, performing Bach’s complete Brandenburg Concertos. Widely regarded as the greatest examples of Baroque instrumental music, these six masterpieces unfailingly provide fulfillment for music lovers of all backgrounds, and are a perfect vehicle to inspire strength at year’s end and a vision for the brightest future.
“This is a rare and unusual opportunity to hear these Baroque masterpieces performed in their entirety, by some of the world’s finest musicians on our own Nightingale stage. It is a not-to-be-missed musical marathon,” Hyeyeon Park, Artistic Co-Director of Apex Concerts said.
The Dec. 9 performance is part of a national tour that will visit several of the nation’s most prestigious concert halls, including New York’s Alice Tully Hall. The 推荐杏吧原创’s own Professor of Music Dmitri Atapine, is on the national tour and will perform during the concert in Reno.

“To be back on stages around the country, alongside dear colleagues and performing some of the most transcendent music is very special,” says Atapine, Artistic Co-Director of Apex Concerts. “It is a testament to the power and importance of the arts – of music – in our lives as the nation begins to emerge from the pandemic. To see the audience filling our halls, applauding… it’s so humbling and reassuring!”
“We are thrilled to partner with Apex Concerts and share this extraordinary musicianship and music with our community. This is something we don’t get to experience every day in Reno and a wonderful opportunity for our community to see these masterpieces performed in person and in such an amazing venue,” says Shoshana Zeldner, Program Manager for the Performing Arts Series.
