The Kenwood Senior Living will be filled with the rich sounds of Johann Sebastian Bach’s compositions as part of the Bach Society of Minnesota’s Mobile Mini-Concert series at 12:50 p.m. on Saturday, March 1. Performed by renowned cellist Charles Asch, this program is free and open to the public.
Charles Asch, an accomplished cellist, will showcase his mastery of Bach’s solo cello suites, providing a deeply moving musical experience. He performs as a baroque cellist throughout Minnesota with ensembles including Bach Society of MN, Lyra Baroque Orchestra, and Bach Roots Festival. He obtained his Doctor of Musical Arts degree from the University of Minnesota, as well as his Master of Music degree from Juilliard.

“We are thrilled to bring the music of Bach to our seniors,” said Michelle Robbins, activities director at The Kenwood. “Charles Asch’s talent and passion for Bach’s works will undoubtedly create a memorable and uplifting experience for everyone.”
