Bach, the serious church musician? Bach, the bohemian? In this small-scale, theatrical concert entitled ’Bach’s Family Reunion’, the Netherlands Bach Society shows the composer’s many faces, plus those of colleagues around him, including Telemann.
Shunske Sato, former artistic leader of the Bach Society: “We know so little about Bach, but the few things we do know - plus of course his music - give insight into the versatility of his character. Bach was not only the serious church musician, but also the man of improvisations and joyful folk songs. Bach was fiery and serious at the same time. He was a diligent man, he searched and dug deep, was always striving to become even better. For mediocrity, therefore, he had no patience. But he was also a bohemian, an epicurean, a lover of the then still exotic coffee. And of good food. An account exists of a trip to Halle; the dinner and tobacco costs exceeded the travel expenses. That is so significant.“
