St. Martin's Chamber Choir opens its 14th season on October 5th and 7th with "Masterpieces of the German Baroque: Buxtehude Tercentenary". Such was J. S. Bach's admiration of the great Lübeck organist Dietrich Buxtehude that he reportedly walked 200 miles in 1705 to hear him perform. St. Martin's commemorates the 300th anniversary of Buxtehude's death, and presents works by those who influenced him, and those whom he influenced. The program includes a cappella works by Schütz, Demantius, Pachelbel, and Bach, as well as Buxtehude's Missa Brevis.

"Masterpieces of the German Baroque" will be presented Friday, October 5th and Sunday, October 7th at St. Elizabeth's Church, Auraria Campus, 1060 St. Francis Way, Denver, Colorado. Both concerts begin at 7:30 p.m. Tickets are $20 adult, $17 senior, and $5 student. For more information contact the St. Martin's office at 303-298-1970 or info@StMartinsChamberChoir.org.
