La Fiocco, the Bucks County Baroque ensemble, will begin its 2025-2026 season with Actus Tragicus, a program consisting of J.S. Bach’s Cantata 106, and works by Bach’s predecessors. La Fiocco teams with Vocala Ensemble, a professional chamber choir for this concert of sacred and instrumental music by J. S. Bach and other lesser-known composers including David Pohle, Franz Tunder, Dietrich Becker, Matthias Weckmann, and Dieterich Buxtehude. This is a rare opportunity to hear the exquisite music of the North German tradition, in addition to Actus tragicus, also known as Gottes Zeit ist die allerbeste Zeit, still celebrated as one of Bach’s most moving cantatas with its haunting writing for vocal soloists, choir, recorders, violas da gamba, and organ.
