Info

Bach’s Brandenburg Concertos rank among the crowning achievements of the Baroque era. Richly expressive writing for strings and winds, virtuosic instrumental solos and rhythmic verve combine to form a cycle full of splendour and charm. Each concerto has its own distinctive scoring and character; together they reveal the remarkable stylistic range of the composer. Under the direction of Masato Suzuki, the legendary Bach Collegium Japan opens our Originalklang series with a performance of all six concertos in a single evening. Over the past decades, the ensemble has played a leading role in connecting European and Asian traditions of Baroque performance.
