"A consummate master at the height of his powers" Fanfare J.S. Bach "0 Ewigkeit, du Donnerwort", Cantates BWV 2, 20 & 176 Collegium Vocale, Philippe Herreweghe After his move to Leipzig in 1723, the years 1724 and 1725 were especially creative ones for the new Kantor of St Thomas'. Bach had decided to write a complete cycle of chorale cantatas, thus producing a body of work that went far beyond the expectations of his employers. The target he had set himself now offered an unparalleled laboratory for musical experimentation. These three cantatas for the Sundays after Trinity, which begin the liturgical year, date from this period. ll!)O«a -a Darkness into Light - Tavener The Bridegroom & other works Anonymous 4, Chilingirian Quartet r:': N S 0\ ~ :::i:: Medieval & modem - a mystical journey "Mesmerizing" San Francisco Chronicle (concert review) The World's Finest Classical & Jazz Music Emporium LAtelier Grigorian 70 Yorkville Ave., Toronto 21 O Lakeshore Rd., Oakville 416-922-64 77 905-338-2360
