Koncert: BACH COLLEGIUM BARCELONA (ES)
Stylus Phantasticus
Stylus Phantasticus is a unique musical creation that depicts a period of history rich in social and artistic happenings. The Thirty Years’ War Europe had a devastating impact on Europe. As always, music provides a perfect picture of the moment that humankind was living through. So, this is an opportunity to travel back to this troubled but prolific time and to appreciate how different composers as Buxtehude, Pachelbel, Rosenmüller, Reincken, Muffat and the great genius Bach himself captured the moment in their works. The works display incredible musical and technical artistry, revealing the composers’ inner voices and individual creative universes; the effect is at once angelic in its harmony and intense in its passion and virtuosity. The performance, with its arrangement of two violins, viola da gamba and harpsichord will evoke German scenery and gently transport you through the German countryside, with the journey reaching its end and culminating in the works of Bach, the pinnacle of contemporary creative genius.
