Bach Concert - MINIMES CANTAT

Our November cantatas are both early works but already display Bach’s sophisticated invention.  Two unique features:  the only violoncello duet in all the cantatas, and a ‘home-made’ reconstruction of lost violin parts in a soprano aria.  Plus a joyful and rarely-heard motet by Bach’s greatest predecessor Johann Christoph - his father’s cousin.  

 “The cantatas of the Minimes” have been a Brussels institution for 41 years now. Every fourth Sunday of the month, we present the cantatas of J. S. Bach as the Cantor of Leipzig had done in his time. Free admission at 17.00 for a concert of about 45 minutes in the very beautiful church of Saint-Jacques-sur-Coudenberg where the faithful audience will regularly come for a great spiritual and cultural moment.
