Crescendo "World class music here at home in the Berkshires and the Litchfield Hills"

Here's Crescendo's Mission Statement:
“Crescendo is dedicated to the performance of music with cultural significance that is of high quality, is emotionally alive, and personally meaningful for its audience and musicians. Our innovative programming and historically-informed performance practices distinguish us from many music organizations, and we are dedicated to educational outreach—to amateur and professional singers, audiences and students.”

"Bach captures the essence of our shared humanity with a relevance that transcends his 18th-century origins. Whether or not one shares his specific faith, the music translates spiritual concepts into a universal experience of beauty and comfort. These works are full of surprises that keep both the performers and the audience on the edge of their seats. After a year of intense preparation, we are honored to finally share this vision with our community." Christine Gevert, Crescendo's Founding Artistic Director
