A morning dedicated entirely to Johann Sebastian Bach: In a live episode of the popular MDR podcast, musicologists Michael Maul and Bernhard Schrammek embark on a fascinating journey of discovery through the universe of the great Thomaskantor.
With profound knowledge, infectious enthusiasm, and subtle humor, they shed light on a special topic from Bach’s world of keyboard music. We won’t reveal any more at this point—just this much: There’s something new to discover, familiar pieces to hear in a new light, and many a surprising story to learn.
The conversation is musically complemented by the outstanding pianist Grigory Gruzman, who brings the thoughts and stories surrounding Bach to life with selected works and audio examples.
An entertaining matinee full of music, insights, and anecdotes—for Bach connoisseurs as well as for anyone who wants to be inspired by his music and personality.
