SUMMARY:Bach Akademie Australia On The Road To Lübeck
DESCRIPTION:Bach Akademie Australia is delighted to present In the Steps of Bach – The Road to Lübeck\, a musical journey of self-discovery and inspiration with concerts in Sydney and Newcastle. \nFeaturing three of Australia’s finest musicians\, organist Marko Sever\, bass baritone Andrew O’Connor\, and countertenor Russell Harcourt\, Bach Akademie Australia will take audiences on the young Bach’s 400-kilometre expedition from Arnstadt to Lübeck\, in pursuit of his idol\, Buxtehude. \nIn the autumn of 1705\, a young 20-year-old Bach began a journey on foot of almost 400 kilometres from Arnstadt in the heart of Germany\, to Lübeck near the Baltic coast. Who would undertake such a gruelling expedition? Only one such as J.S. Bach\, whose desire to study the art and craft of the famous organist Dietrich Buxtehude\, drove him to complete a journey most would baulk at – such was his desire to learn from his idol and better himself as a musician. \nOpening the program is music by J.S Bach’s older cousin\, Johann Christoph Bach’s magnificent Chorale zum praeludium Ein feste Burg ist unser Gott. A mixture of works by the great Baroque masters follow\, including Pachelbel’s Chaconne in F minor for organ and Bach’s symbol of the Holy Trinity\, his Prelude and Fugue in E flat major BWV 552\, all performed on the organ. \nThe St James’ performance marks one of the first concerts featuring the church’s brand-new pipe organ following its installation earlier this year as part of St James’ 200th Anniversary celebrations. \nThis concert series also marks the first time Bach Akademie Australia will be performing in Newcastle\, at the historic Christ Church Cathedral. Known for its stunning Gothic Revival architecture and rich history\, the cathedral’s organ is renowned for its magnificent sound quality and intricate craftsmanship. \nTickets\nThe program\nJOHANN CHRISTOPH BACH Chorale zum praeludium ‘Ein feste Burg ist unser Gott’/ PACHELBEL Muscaliche Ergöztung Suite in C major/ PACHELBEL Chaconne in F minor for organ P.43/ Marko Sever\, organ\nNICHOLAS BRUHNS ‘Der Herr hat seinen Stuhl im Himmel bereitet’/ Andrew O’Connor\nGEORG BÖHM Chorale Prelude ‘Christ lag in TodesbGEORG BÖHM Chorale Prelude ‘Christ lag in Todesbanden’/ J.S.
