BACH À L’HONNEUR

MARDI 18 MARS 2025 À 19H00

CONSERVATOIRE DE LA VILLE DE LUXEMBOURG - SALLE POLYVALENTE

This spring, the Conservatory of the City of Luxembourg highlights one of the most popular baroque composers: Johann Sebastian Bach (born 21st of March 1685). In his enormous output of music, we admire the strict musical-harmonic architecture combined with intensive rhythmical beats. Down to earth and able to enchant us at the same time both into a foreign and familiar emotional world of the baroque era: desire and calm, courtly noblesse, grief or playful joy we can experience with Bach.

Bach also arranged various excellent music from his contemporaries (e.g. Antonio Vivaldi / Georg Philipp Telemann). The program “Concerts imaginaires & transcrits” (18.3.) presents concerts and transcriptions by Bach as well as a reconstruction of a flute concerto performed by musicians from Luxembourg and Basel. There will also be workshops focusing on the music at the time of Bach (19. - 21.3.).
