Masato Suzuki and the Bach Collegium Japan
The evening promises a memorable encounter with one of the most celebrated groups of works in Bach’s oeuvre, as well as an introduction to the leading ensemble of the Japanese historically informed performance movement.
Schedule
At Bach Collegium Japan’s first concert in Hungary, the world-renowned ensemble founded in 1990 by Masaaki Suzuki will perform the complete set of Brandenburg Concertos, which were dedicated to Margrave Christian Ludwig and scored for “several instruments”. On this occasion, the performance of these popular and iconic works from the Baroque repertoire will be directed by the excellent musician Masato Suzuki – the founder’s son – who is engaged in impressively wide-ranging activities and enjoys recognition both as a harpsichordist and a conductor.
