Gli Angeli Genève

The renowned ensemble Gli Angeli Genève will be at the Basilica of Saint-Maurice Abbey on Wednesday May 27 at 8:00 pm for a concert on Johann Christoph Bach entitled "De profunde Componist".

It was Johann Sebastian Bach who said of himself: "Der profunde Componist". His son Carl Philip Emanuel's formula was: "Dies ist der grosse und ausdrückende Componist". In such a dynasty of musicians, in the midst of which the tutelary figure of Johann Sebastian now unquestionably reigns supreme, knowing that everyone, including him, agreed that Johann Christoph Bach, organist in Arnstadt, was exceptional, should give us pause if we are not yet familiar with his works. Johann Christoph's music is imbued with a power, finesse and invention that leave us breathless. At the crossroads of movements and styles, his work, or rather the small fragments of it that have not been lost along the way, bear witness to an immense genius.

The concert, part of the program at Le Crochetan, was originally scheduled for the Monthey church. It will now take place in the Basilica of Saint-Maurice Abbey, due to the work currently underway in the church.
