The Brandenberg Concerto 300th Anniversary Project asks: What music would you like to have heard on the Voyager Golden Record that they did not include? Or put another way, what list of music would you want to represent all of humanity and human history that might be launched on a future Golden Record that would travel through space for the next 5 billion years?
March 24th, 2021 is the 300th Anniversary of the Brandenburg Concertos, a JS Bach masterpiece. We will be celebrating with two Livestreams – one at 2 to 3:30 pst, and the second at 7 to 8:30 pst. Sponsored by the Osher Lifelong Learning Institute and the Department of Music and Performing Arts at California State University Monterey, all completely free – a gift to the world from Monterey, California to honor for one of the most significant pieces of music ever written.
