Bachfest Leipzig 2004: Ascension Oratorios

Sigiswald Kuijken conducts baroque ensemble La Petite Bande and the Ex Tempora choir during the Bachfest 2004 in the St. Nicolas Church in Leipzig. Since 1999, the Bachfest has been one of the most important music festivals for the performance of Bach’s music. This concert opens with J. S. Bach’s Ascension Oratorio “Lobet Gott in seinen Reichen” (BWV 11). The work was written in 1735 and would be the composer’s final contribution to the genre. The oratorio is so short that in 1852 it was accidentally classified as a cantata by the Bach Gesamtausgabe. The concert proceeds with “Die Auferstehung und Himmelfahrt Jesu” (Wq 240), an oratorio by Bach’s most famous son Carl Philipp Emanuel Bach. Soloists are Sophie Karthäuser (soprano), Patrizia Hardt (alto), Christoph Einhorn (tenor), Christoph Genz (tenor), Jan van der Crabben (baritone) and Stephan Genz (bass).
