De achtergrond

Bach at his finest

Which work did Bach regard as his finest? There’s a good chance it might have been the Mass in B Minor. This programme presents the foundations of this masterpiece: three cantatas that Bach used at the end of his life, in the Mass in B Minor.

The originals of what is maybe the very finest of Bach’s work“

For example, the ‘Patrem omnipotentem’ originated from Gott, wie dein Name, so ist auch dein Ruhm, the ‘Osanna’ from Preise dein Glücke, gesegnetes Sachsen, and the ‘Agnus Dei’ from Lobet Gott in seinen Reichen. Richard Egarr leads the ensemble in these originals of what is maybe the very finest of Bach’s work. Egarr is a true specialist in early music, with his roots in English choral music. He likes to approach the music as if he is discovering it on the spot. Fresh and flowing, with a starring role for the vocals.
