Bach Week: How to Listen to Bach

It's Bach Week! How can someone learn to listen to Bach? Kantor Kevin Hildebrand (Kantor of Concordia Theological Seminary, Fort Wayne, IN) joins Andy and Sarah to talk about how Bach has influenced his work and faith, how Bach played a role in his love of music, how we can marvel at the beauty of Bach's music and also let it wash over us as something good and beautiful, insights for understanding the significance of Bach's music, what is key when listening to Bach's organ and choral music, and examples of where to start a listening journey.

As you grab your morning coffee (and pastry, let’s be honest), join hosts Andy Bates and Sarah Gulseth as they bring you stories of the intersection of Lutheran life and a secular world. Catch real-life stories of mercy work of the LCMS and partners, updates from missionaries across the ocean, and practical talk about how to live boldly Lutheran.
