Deb Talan

Deb Talan

 

Deb Talan’s voice has been described as “intoxicating” by NPR, “sugary and sultry” by Paste Magazine, “inimitable” by The Boston Globe. Her songwriting, whether as half of the folk-pop duo The Weepies, or solo, has earned her recognition on multiple “Best Of” lists over the years and numerous placements in movies, tv shows and commercials.

Talan’s new release, I Thought I Saw You, distributed by ONErpm, maps her journey into new life, love, longing, and letting go. The collection of lush, folk-pop gems is enriched by Iowa musicians Dan Padley (keys, guitar) and Jay Foote (bass). Deb’s voice and writing urge the listener to lean into the whole range of feelings involved in making and accepting big life changes.

CONCORA & Baroklyn, featuring Simone Dinnerstein

BACHtoberfest 2025
Tickets go on sale June 23, 2025

Fresh off the release of their first professional recording, Simone Dinnerstein’s chamber ensemble Baroklyn joins Connecticut-based professional choir CONCORA in a program of two cantatas, Es ist das Heil uns kommen her (BWV9), and Himmelskönig, sei willkommen (BWV182). 

Dinnerstein leads from the keyboard providing a rare opportunity to hear the piano as a continuo instrument, just as Mendelssohn did in his own performances of Bach’s choral works. The evening features Dinnerstein’s performance of Bach’s Concerto in E Major (BWV1053) with Baroklyn, as well as a number of arrangements of chorale-preludes included in their debut recording.

Music Worcester presents: BACHtoberfest: Peter Krasinski, organ

Music Worcester presents: BACHtoberfest: Peter Krasinski, organ

 

Peter Krasinski performs an afternoon of Bach’s organ works for the second annual BACHtoberfest weekend. The afternoon highlights Bach’s secular and sacred organ works, and continues THE COMPLETE BACH’s annual tradition of recitals for organ. Featuring the Mechanics Hall’s Hook Organ, an institution in Worcester for more than 160 years, this performance allows the listener to experience the robust sound and feeling of a pipe organ. 

In 1863, Elias and George Hook began the installation of the custom-built instrument, fit perfectly for the Great Hall. The Hook Organ is made up of 3,504 pipes and 52 stops. Listeners flock to hear this organ played, both for its history and for its intensity and story. Hear the Great Hall fill with sound at this afternoon organ recital.
