Daniel leads the Kansas City Baroque Consortium in a program of J.S. Bach and his contemporaries. 

Before Bach, a generation of German composers was creating music of startling depth, richness, and beauty—music that rarely makes it to the stage today. Featuring works by Rosenmüller, Biber, Schmelzer, and Erlebach, this concert dives into the darker, sweeter side of the baroque, where glorious five-part string textures shine with clarity and warmth. Presented alongside handmade works by NYC-based fiber artists, the program draws connections between sound and textile—each a world of interwoven lines, depth, and ornament.

Interspersed with sonatas by Corelli, Handel, and Castello, this program explores what happens when women fall—whether into shame, madness, or vengeance—and how, through music, their voices rise again.
