The Paths of Bach - A musical journey in the tracks of Bach - Raphaël Pichon and the Pygmalion Ensemble
In Search of Bach
In four concerts at four rare historic venues, Raphaël Pichon and the Pygmalion Ensemble follow the stages of Johann Sebastian Bach's biography in Thuringia, the region in central Germany and the birthplace of the Bach family.
Trykk på på lenken her for å høre og se fire fabelaktige konserter med Pygmalion Ensemble & Raphaël Pichon - langs Bachs steder, vandringer og veier i Thüringen - det hele produsert fabelaktig av tv-kanalen ARTE Consert i 2024 under Thüringer-Bachwochen.
Ensemblet fulgte stier og veier delvis gående eller syklende - og inviterte publikum med på en reise (se hele dagsprogrammet under). Det er kantater, motetter, to av de korte messene (Kyrie og Gloria) og musikk av Bachs famile og relaterte til de stedene for konsertene.
Programmet for konsertene benevnes i filmene. De er tilgjengelige frem til 16.april 2026 - særdeles god fornøyelse og nytelse:)

The Paths of Bach - A musical journey in the tracks of Johann Sebastian Bach
May, 11 - 17, 2024 | Arnstadt, Dornheim, Weißensee
In 1705, Johann Sebastian Bach was twenty years old. As a young organist from a modest background, he wanted to perfect his musical education - and so he set off from Arnstadt to Lübeck to meet the composer Dietrich Buxtehude, an undisputed master of his craft. Only a few details are known about his journey of more than 400 kilometres, which must have been partly on foot along the Roman salt road. For Bach, however, it represented a personal and artistic awakening that would characterise his entire future work.
On the occasion of its 20th anniversary (in 2026), the French ensemble pygmalion would like to embark on a similarly formative journey. To return to Bach's roots and share a unique collective and artistic experience, Raphaël Pichon and his ensemble will follow the paths of the young Bach in an ambitious project:
In three sections, Pygmalion will undertake a musical journey partly on foot and partly by bicycle, including concerts as well as encounter projects. The project offers performers and audiences alike a unique insight into the musician's profession and Bach's work in order to grasp its vitality, meaning and significance for the present day.
