Cantatas with Ton Koopman

Ton Koopman returns to Bachcelona to celebrate the 10th edition of the Festival. At the head of the soloists of the Salvat Bach Grant, of the Bachcelona Consort, and of the Akademie prepared by Lluís Vilamajó, he will offer us two well-known cantatas of the Kantor of Leipzig which are highly esteemed, especially for the luminous dancing final chorus, Jesus bleibet meine Freude. The two works include the trumpet in their organic instrumental ensemble, something that gives them a splendid festive tone that is perfectly suited to the celebration for which they were written and which moreover coincides with the start of the Festival!
