Celebrate Halloween with PDQ Bach!

The Nebraska Chamber Players will perform an all PDQ Bach concert Halloween weekend. Two of the works have never been performed in Lincoln. So mark your calendars and get ready for some fun! PDQ Bach as he’s never been performed in Lincoln! 

On the program will be “Blaues Gras” Cantata featuring Mr. Steve Hanson on banjo along with mandolin specialist, Ted Eschlimann, and many others for a total of 17 musicians on that piece. This is a big concert and will include Halloween inspired hors d’oeuvres, decor and some shenanigans! Rusty Banks, composer of Ashfall, is coming back to be a part of the “Blaues Gras” band. There are NCP strings, Baritone Trey Meyer, and Tenor Christian Cardona to add Cantata-esque notes, plus a rendition of Sheep May Safely (or not so much) Graze by NCP flutist Lindsay Bartlett joined by Southwest’s own, Alyssa Wilhelm. Lots of irreverence and fun for all.
