In Bach’s time, a cantata was a musical sermon. Today, it is amazing music and – for those who listen attentively – a lesson in life. This programme explores the spectrum of human emotion, from profound sorrow to unbridled joy, culminating in the luminous beauty of Bach’s cherished cantata, Schmücke dich, o liebe Seele. Under the baton of Bart Naessens, the Bach Society’s ensemble performs alongside top soloists like Stefanie True and Alexander Chance.
If you’re searching and uncertain, where can you anchor yourself and find assurance? This rich programme shows you the way, with beautiful Bach cantatas and music by composers whom Bach himself greatly admired: Johann Kuhnau and Johann Christoph Bach. Halfway through the programme, Bach’s colleague and friend, Telemann, gives us a foretaste of what we are all working towards: unbridled joy and inner peace.
