Govert Jan Bach’s weekday programme about the oeuvre of Johann Sebastian Bach.
In this merry Christmas week, we will focus more on new recordings of the Weinachtsoratorium by the J.S. Bach-Stiftung and by Jordi Savall. There will be podcasts, and we are approaching episode 900! Today Bach & Co on Bach’s Weihnachtsoratorium.
With this episode of Bach & Co, we will start a series of episodes of Bach Ad Infinitum on Weihnachtsoratorium BWV 248.
In Bach & Co we will play pieces or parts from J.S. Bach-Stiftung St. Gallen’s performance of the oratorio. Conducted by Rudolf Lutz.
