Johann Sebastian Bach: Messe in h-Moll BWV 232: Mass in B minor Bach,JS

It was not created as a single piece of work, and yet it stands out in its uniqueness and complexity as a milestone in Western music history: Johann Sebastian Bach's Mass in B minor, officially declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2015, almost occupied the Leipzig Thomaskantor for a quarter of a century. In doing so, he used an impressive compositional range, indeed a stylistic pluralism, which made this »opus ultimum« an »opus summus« and can be regarded as his musical legacy. With a two-year delay due to Corona, Christoph Siebert and his choir with a group of renowned soloists and instrumentalists are now setting out for this "Montblanc of Church Music" to celebrate the 90th birthday of the Cologne Bach Association.

English

Sie entstand nicht als Werk aus einem Guss, und doch ragt sie in ihrer Einzigartigkeit und Komplexität als Meilenstein aus der abendländischen Musikgeschichte heraus: Johann Sebastian Bachs h-Moll-Messe, im Jahr 2015 offiziell zum UNESCO-Weltkulturerbe ernannt, beschäftigte den Leipziger Thomaskantor fast ein Vierteljahrhundert lang. Dabei bediente er sich einer beeindruckenden kompositorischen Bandbreite, ja eines Stilpluralismus, der dieses »Opus ultimum« zugleich zu einem »Opus summus« werden ließ und als sein musikalisches Vermächtnis gelten darf. Mit zweijähriger Corona-bedingter Verspätung machen sich Christoph Siebert und sein Chor mit einer Riege renommierter Solist:innen und Instrumentalist:innen nun zu diesem »Montblanc der Kirchenmusik« auf, um nachträglich den 90. Geburtstag des Bach-Vereins Köln zu feiern.
