A musical evening that brings baroque music to life in surprising colors: Chemins de Bach and the Reflektor ensemble take you on a musical journey in which Johann Sebastian Bach's music is reinterpreted in a lively, reflective way.
The program focuses on works that showcase Bach's compositional genius in its structural clarity and emotional depth – yet the ensemble approaches these pieces not as a historically fixed canon, but as living, breathing music. With chamber music sensibility and articulatory precision, Reflektor unfolds the polyphonic sophistication of Baroque music, allowing lines and voices to interweave into a polyphonic sound structure while simultaneously opening a dialogue between tradition and contemporary expressiveness.
The evening demonstrates how Bach's music, with its balance of rigor and freedom, can still sound fresh and immediate today. The acoustic clarity of the Kulturforum creates a space in which sound figures, rhythmic energy, and expressive nuances merge into an intense listening experience. Chemins de Bach invites you to revisit familiar paths of Baroque music—as a reflective, open approach to a work that has remained an inspiration for centuries.
