Upcoming release
For the second time on the Phi label, Philippe Herreweghe presents four Bach cantatas written during the first year the composer spent in Leipzig. In relation to the repertoire composed in Weimar, the instrumentarium is enlarged to adapt to the size of the churches of Saint Thomas and Saint Nicholas. But, above all, the instrumental virtuosity is much greater, as are the vocal demands confronting the choirs and solo singers, trained at the time by Bach himself. The Collegium Vocale Gent, under the direction of Philippe Herreweghe and in the company of top-notch soloists (Dorothee Mields, Damien Guillon, Thomas Hobbs and Peter Kooij), show us in dazzling fashion to what point the composer endeavoured to create veritable musical sermons going far beyond a simple musical setting of the text. By way of a bonus, the album contains a magical little piece, Komm, Jesu, komm by Johann Schelle, one of Bach's predecessors in Leipzig.

BACH : Sonatas for Viola da Gamba and Harpsichord, BWV 1027-1029
Marianne Muller and Françoise Lengellé are two exceptional musicians whose career has constantly been that of performers having a great love of discoveries as well as of in-depth work, and who are now at the peak of their art. Their approach to these great Bach works comes from complicity, of course, but even more from enlightened, generous rigour, as close as possible to the spirit of the work.
