This album includes 3 live recordings from the Evangelische Trogen. The Choir and Orchestra of the J.S. Bach Foundation performs on historical instruments under the direction of Rudolf Lutz, who also founded the choir and orchestra in 2006. The ensemble consists of professional musicians from all over Switzerland, Germany and Austria. All members are experienced in historical performance practices and relish the challenge of exploring a contemporary and vital interpretation of Bach’s cantatas. The choir and orchestra have been performing Bach’s cantatas in a monthly concert cycle since October, 2006. Througout the ongoing work of this project, it has continually developed and matured. Today, the ensemble is distinguished by its homogenous, yet flexible sound and its wealth of experience in the interpretation of Bach’s works.
