J.S. Bach, known as the great master, wrote more than 200 cantatas, and UMD Choral Activities aims to sing them all in this series of short performances led by conductors in the graduate program. Conducted by a graduate student from the choral conducting program, this performance will feature Meinen Jesum laß ich nicht, BWV 124, which describes the resilience of faith in the face of adversity.
