With elegant orchestral writing and vivid text depiction, Bach’s cantata “Was mein Gott will, das g’scheh allzeit” BWV 111 (“What my God wills, may it always happen”) displays the High Baroque style at its very best. The Bach Choir and Orchestra present this and other pieces for the Epiphanytide in the final Vespers service of the season.
