Come and experience a magical evening filled with the beautiful music of Soprano Bahareh Poureslami and J.S. Bach. Get ready to be serenaded by the enchanting melodies in the stunning setting of St. Augustine's Church. This event is a must-attend for music lovers and anyone looking for a soulful experience. Don't miss out on this unforgettable night!

Described as having a "warm-toned and confident instrument…radiant demeanor, sure footedness and a light touch", soprano Bahareh Poureslami enjoys a varied performing and teaching career across the platforms.Her musical curiosity was heavily influenced by her artistic grandmother who was always introducing her to different forms of expression through crafts and singing. She obtained her Bachelor’s degree at the University of British Columbia, with a Master’s in Voice and Opera Performance at Northwestern University’s Bienen School of Music, where she enjoyed partaking in Chicago’s rich artistic scene.Bahareh has performed in opera, across concert stages, and as an Art Song aficionado, she has prepared and presented numerous solo and chamber repertoire programs.With great emphasis on versatility, she has not shied away from contemporary repertoire, premiering many new works, and has extensively performed sacred repertoire from concert stages to her local Church (you’ll most likely see her singing at Church more than any other space). The sacredness of space and acoustics has made Baroque music her home, as it always plays at her heart strings in the same way the music of her region does.

“From old to new, classical or fusion, I am always looking to make connections for and with myself, the music, my colleagues, and my most beloved audience members. Music is for everyone; to see and consume and grow from, and to be able to share this joy is a privilege.”
