Bachfestival in Leipzig June 2021
BACHFESTIVAL LEIPZIG 2021 * 11 - Friday - 20 June 2021
BACH --REDEMPTION"
The motto of the Leipzig Bach Festival 2021 is "Redemption". Johann Sebastian Bach was also a savior: he gave consolation with his music, made peace and overcome boundaries - and left a lasting mark on many musical fields.
The festival starts with "Bach's Messias", a 4-day cycle in which world-famous Bach interpreters will tell the life story of Jesus Christ in 33 cantatas, three oratorios and the St. Matthew Passion.
Thomaskantor Gotthold Schwarz with his Thomaners perform Mozart's Requiem in addition to the Christmas Oratorio. Most recently, with Jordi Savall, Bach becomes one of the greatest musical peacemakers of our day
conducting Mass in B minor.

Johann Sebastian Bach in Leipzig - special.
"We know very little abaout Bach's life. There are only a few facts to go on and our image of him is skewed by statues and paintings of a stern forbidding figure in a frock coat and a powered wig.
And then there is the music.
Bach is still the benchmark, a musical gold standard, the ultimate composer's composor, influencing countless others from Mozart to Mendelssohn, Beethoven to Brahms, etc..."
from youtube, Sir J. E. Gardiner, A passionate life for Bach
