Ensemble Correspondances
Mühlhausen, 1707. During his short stay in the city, the 22-year-old Bach wrote his first and perhaps most beloved cantatas. The Actus Tragicus (Gottes Zeit ist die allerbeste Zeit), Christ lag in Todesbanden and Aus der Tiefe are all about life, farewells and what comes after. The writing is light and direct. Few pieces of music are as comforting as these three gems. Ensemble Correspondances delves into the world of the brilliant young Bach, in which the DNA of the mature oeuvre already slumbers.
