Journeying to the places where Johann Sebastian Bach lived and worked is an experience as near to pilgrimage as is offered by the history of music. And hearing his music in buildings which he frequented, or even where it was first performed, must rank among the highest delights available to music lovers. This unique festival provides the opportunity.
Eight concerts in eight different venues present a comprehensive range of Bach’s output, alongside works by other contemporaries and predecessors. For this, the fifth J.S. Bach Journey, we have assembled artists and ensembles who are world leaders in performance of the repertoire.
