Bach to Minimalism
21 January 2025/ France / Lyon
Johann Sebastian Bach's music is timeless and universal. His mastery of counterpoint, his melodic genius and the breath of his inspiration have influenced many of today's minimalist composers. They borrow from the baroque master the use of a continuous pulse, a certain radicality of musical thought and an uncommon vitality. Links and aesthetic affinities between two worlds and two eras structure this search for purity for a musical timeless journey.
