Tafelmusik presents: Motets-Bach as Muse

This page is also available in / Cette page est également disponible en: Français (French)

Only seven motets by Johann Sebastian Bach have survived, but these works had a profound influence on generations of German composers. Countless composers have been inspired by Bach’s remarkable ability to infuse complex and masterful counterpoint with a profound and nuanced expression of the text. In this intimate concert we weave a tapestry of choral colours and textures: works by Bach provide the warp, and motets by Homilius, Mendelssohn, Brahms, Rheinberger, and Reger provide the multi-hued weft. Illuminating this choral tapestry are movements from Bach’s suites for solo cello, performed by Tafelmusik’s Michael Unterman.
