Messe in h-Moll by Bach, J. S., So. 15 Mai 2022, Ab (2022/2022), Dirigat René Jacobs, Forum am Schlosspark, Ludwigsburg, Deutschland

If the B minor Mass that began in 1733 had only remained a so-called Kyrie-Gloria Mass, then its origin would be told quickly. But it was to be another 16 years before Johann Sebastian Bach wrote his last great vocal work with the words »Fine. DSGL« signed. Deo Soli Gloria – for the glory of God Bach had struggled to finish until the very end; so high was the demand for perfection in the combination of his Christian and artistic credos. The Akademie für Alte Musik Berlin, under the direction of René Jacobs, and the RIAS Kammerchor Berlin are ceremoniously bringing to Ludwigsburg the very project with which their loyal collaboration began 30 years ago.
