Getting up on a Sunday and enjoying Bach is the guarantee of a week that starts well. The musicians of the National are reunited with harpsichordist Jeanne Jourquin for the second part of their complete Brandenburg Concertos, which they began two seasons ago. We enjoy the Third and its false airs of Vivaldi, the Fourth , a violin concerto dotted with unexpected dialogues with the flutes, and the Sixth and last, a sublimation and quintessence of the concerto grosso .

Playing, hearing (and therefore sharing) Bach is always a joy – a famous conductor once spoke of “music in the castle of heaven”. What could be more apt? Celestial, it speaks to men. Human, it reaches for the heights as soon as it rises. Bach being, of all composers, the one who has been transcribed the most, the musicians of the National have had the wonderful idea of ​​offering the Goldberg Variations , in a version for wind octet, and Suite No. 2. Christmas is here!
