Presentation
Bach before Bach: the famous Johann Sebastian is the heir of a family of musicians, based in the region of Thuringia, but also of an extraordinary Protestant musical tradition, which permeated central Germany for two centuries. Raphaël Pichon takes us on a journey to discover these musical treasures.
Les chemins de Bach is a large-scale project with which Pygmalion undertakes to explore all facets of Johann Sebastian Bach's music. This section explores the Bach dynasty to trace the origins of the genius.
This show is presented with the exceptional support of Aline Foriel-Destezet
This concert is dedicated to the memory of Serge Chenderoff
Concert recorded by France Musique. Broadcast on 27th December 2022 at 8pm
