Bach Chamber Music Festival

The concept of the Bach Chamber Music Festival strives to embrace a wealth of aesthetic, cultural and historical values. For one thing, audiences at the festival hear seldom performed interpretations of Bach’s chamber music, including the compositions that were produced by the great artist’s sons and contemporaries, as well as the music inspired by Bach’s personality. The festival is also a cradle for new music – each year there are new works commissioned especially for the festival. The festival is focussed on the intimate, the soulful, the personal. It manifests the producers’ desire to reveal Bach from the „quiet side” and show that the relatively few sounds in a chamber music score can say just as much in the way of fundamental ideas, thoughts and content as Bach’s major vocal and symphonic compositions.
