Armonico Consort here turn their attention to JS Bach’s Mass in B Minor - a work which, in a sense, is a homage to the composer’s own music.
Created over the final quarter-century of his life, the piece is scattered with music and references that Bach considered to be his best work. It also features movements which he’d allowed to develop over time, and to which he’d returned at a later date to make perfect. The Mass was never performed complete in Bach’s lifetime. Armonico’s performance of it will be given under the directorship of their founder & conductor, Christopher Monks.
