Christmas with Bach at L'auditori de Barcelona
イベント情報
Ensemble Pygmalion is one of the best Early Music groups in Europe. Consisting of a choir and an orchestra of period instruments, it was born in 2006 by Raphaël Pichon from a desire to perform a broad repertoire of historically‐informed works ranging from Schütz, Rameau and Bach to Gluck, Mendelssohn and Brahms. Ensemble Pygmalion is in residence at the Opéra National de Bordeaux and appears regularly at leading venues in France and central Europe. Its recordings for labels such as Alpha, Harmonia Mundi and Erato have been favourably received by specialist press across Europe. In the concert presented at L’Auditori, Ensemble Pygmalion will perform six motets by Johann Sebastian Bach and vocal, liturgical works for various voices. Even though the date the motets were composed is unknown, the majority were written during Bach’s Leipzig period and constitute one of the major landmarks in choral polyphony of the Baroque period. When Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart visited Leipzig in 1789 he heard the motet Singet dem Herrn ein neues Lied and was impressed by its beauty and perfect construction.
