Show Notes

 She explores the meaning of the word itself, and takes a deep dive into the program which includes Bach’s Cantata BWV 39 ‘Brich dem Hungrigen dein Brot’, dubbed Bach’s ‘refugee’ cantata, his harpsichord concerto in E which has been arranged for violin by Kati Debrezeni, and finally his Cantata BWV 147 ‘Herz und Mund, und Tat und Leben’. Madeleine takes us through the history of these works plus explores just why Bach was the greatest musical benefactor of all to us, his grateful listeners.
