Stadtkirche St. Michael

»Bach is the beginning and end of all music «, the composer Max Reger is said to have commented on the baroque master. His motets are imbued with a universal spirit and creative force, and the Sächsisches Vokalensemble and Matthias Jung celebrate Bach’s 340th birthday as befits him. In 2022, these musicians released a highly acclaimed recording of Bach’s motets, quickly hailed as a benchmark. Unlike the cantatas, the motets were not written for Sunday services, but for private use on various occasions. This is also the reason why the individual works are so varied, despite all of them being beholden to the 16th-century tradition of vocal polyphony. No better performers for these effective pieces, in which contrapuntal and concertizing elements, chorale technique and double-choir structures meet in a virtuoso manner, could be imagined than the Dresden-based choir and its conductor!
