Christmas Oratorio: Johann Sebastian Bach at Festspielhaus Baden‐Baden
About the Event
“Our mother tongue is the music of the Habsburg monarchy”, says Iván Fischer about his Budapest Festival Orchestra, with whom the artist turns his attention to an entirely bourgeois Protestant from Germany: Johann Sebastian Bach. Of course, Bach is musically a universalist. Music of any kind only sounds alive when different traditions come together in it. Iván Fischer, a student of Swarowsky and Harnoncourt, Hungarian, scion of a Jewish family, draws his own humanistic universalism from this abundance, with which he now encounters Bach's “Christmas Oratorio”. An experience.
