Podcast: The Bach Cantata Pilgrimage
Posted by Raymond in Enhanced Shows, Podcasts, Regular Shows
On Christmas Day, 1999, Sir John Eliot Gardiner, together with the Monterverdi Choir and the English Baroque Soloists, embarked on one of the largest performance/recording projects undertaken. The plan was to perform and record all 200+ cantatas by Johann Sebastian Bach in one year, each on their proper day in the church calendar. This project gave some lucky audiences a chance to hear incredible live performances of these cantatas. It gave the rest of us incredible performances of every Bach cantata.
