Description
“Nicht Bach, sondern Meer sollte er heissen!” (Ludwig van Beethoven) (Translator’s note: “It’s not Bach he should be called, but Meer!” In German, this is a play on words: “Bach” means brook and “Meer” means sea.)
The “Musical Offering” collection of pieces, dedicated to the Prussian King, Frederick II, is a contrapuntal masterpiece, in which Johann Sebastian Bach seems to draw every conceivable facet from a single theme (Thema Regium – royal theme).
It is a musical testament of the old master, full of freshness, creativity and original quality – like an endless sea.
With this recording, Ensemble Barockin’ presents a musically careful and genuinely new interpretation.
Ensemble Barockin' was founded in 2011 by the Ingolstadt flutist Kozue Sato and is made up of musicians from Russia, France, Germany and Japan, who have devoted themselves to historical performance practice.
