Bach Ensemble Luzern: «Böhmischer und Deutscher Barock – Zelenka trifft Bach»
Program:
Johann Sebastian Bach:
Cantata BWV 163: "Only to each his own"
Cantata BWV 162: "Ah I see, now that I am going to the wedding"
Jan Dismas Zekenka: ZWV 152: Litaniae Lauretanae "Salus infirmorum"
Choir and orchestra of the Bach Ensemble Lucerne
Soloists and soloists:
Christine Boner-Sutter: Soprano
Susanne Puchegger: alto
Livio Schmid: Tenor

Franz Schaffner, conductor
The name Zelenka was long considered an insider tip. Nowadays, his name shines when the Czech Baroque is highlighted. In his compositions, Zelenka shows openness to the world: he combines the Italian with his Bohemian and French traditions and creates his very own style! In its concert, the Bach Ensemble Lucerne juxtaposes Zelenka's nine-part litany "Salus infirmorum" with two cantatas by J.S. Bach: BWV 163: "Nur jedem das Seine" and BWV 162: "Ach, ich sehe" were both first performed in 1715. Salomon Franck, the librettist of these two cantatas, is one of the most original poets that Bach employed for his cantatas.
