The Witching Hour

On Friday evening, a friend and I went to a small choral ensemble concert with a Halloween theme.  The Resonance Ensemble is a group of fourteen singers directed by Katherine FitzGibbon that is based in Portland, OR.
The concert opened with guest keyboardist, Jon Stuber (scroll down page), playing J.S. Bach's haunting Prelude: Toccata and Fugue in D minor BWV 565.  The sound in Agnes Flanagan Chapel (on the Lewis & Clark campus) made the haunting harmonies come to life.  Not being able to see the organist, as the keyboard console is anchored in the balcony at the back of the chapel, amplified the uncanniness.
