A collaboration with Voice of the Viol
Music for beginnings and endings, for a wedding and a funeral, from the Bach Family Archive. JS Bach descended from a long line of gifted musicians, and considered Johan Christoph Bach to be a “profound composer”. This emotionally rich repertoire features a tapestry of solo voices, viola da gamba consort, violin and continuo.
