Simone Dinnerstein, Music Worcester’s first Artist in Residence (2018-2019), returns to Worcester for BACHtoberfest 2025 to perform two headlining concerts this festival weekend. With long-time collaborator Alexis Gerlach, the duo brings a unique interpretation of J.S. Bach’s Gamba Sonatas to this headlining performance, alongside the complete Inventions and Sinfonias.
Her work with Bach’s Inventions and Sinfonias originally debuted in album-format in 2014, still receiving attention for her interpretations. Dinnerstein’s performances of Bach’s keyboard works have garnered her acclaim and recognition for both her accuracy and interpretation. This program also features three sonatas for viola da gamba and harpsichord, which musically reference some of Bach’s other sonatas written for two instruments.

Even among the pantheon of music’s finest artists, Del McCoury stands alone. From the nascent sound of bluegrass that charmed hardscrabble hillbilly honkytonks, rural schoolhouse stages, and the crowning glory of the Grand Ole Opry to the present-day culture-buzz of viral videos and digital streams, Del is the living link. On primetime and late-night television talk shows, there is Del. From headlining sold-out concerts to music festivals of all genres, including one carrying his namesake, there is Del. Where audiences number in the tens of thousands, and admirers as diverse as country-rock icon Steve Earle and jamband royalty Phish count as a few among hundreds, there is Del.

Founded in 2003, Who’s Bad’s live performance is an unrivaled celebration of pop music’s one true King.
Their power-packed performance of Michael Jackson’s expansive catalog has united and ignited crowds on almost every continent, and can only be described as a jaw-dropping, musical must-see. As the longest-running Michael Jackson tribute, and the only one to predate his untimely passing, Who’s Bad is the World’s #1 Michael Jackson Tribute. Performing over 2500 shows worldwide, they have awed even the skeptics, selling out nearly 50 venues in the United Kingdom including London’s O2 in December of 2010, the venue where the King of Pop was slated to end his career with a 50-show “This Is It” concert series.
Beyond this unparalleled achievement, Who’s Bad has checked some of the world’s most famous pavilions off their ‘to-do’ list, selling out their first tour of China with stops at Ningbo’s Grand Theatre and Hunan Grand Theatre in Changsha. Since then, Who’s Bad has toured in Thailand, Abu Dhabi, Saudi Arabia, Mexico, Canada, Germany, Amsterdam and more.
