Eröffnungskonzert >bachs H-moll Messe<: Mass in B minor, BWV 232 Bach, J. S.

Concentus Musicus Wien: an ensemble with a long tradition, Austria’s flagship for Early Music, orchestra in residence of the Melk Abbey International Baroque Festival. Under the leadership of its musical director Stefan Gottfried, it will devote itself to one of the most fascinating composers of music history to mark the opening of the Festival. Because to speak of “secret messages” means to conjure up the name of Johann Sebastian Bach. The Mass in B minor is a highpoint of the whole history of church music and the crowning achievement of Bach’s musical work. For the cleverer ones among us, it is said to contain mathematical codes that Bach hid in the score. Whether he deliberately placed these signs there remains a subject of fascination, just like the profound musical exspression of this Mass.
