Concerto Copenhagen's musicians present six new "Brandenburg Concertos" based on Bach's own music.
Inspired by J. S Bach's own frequent recycling and rewriting, oboist Antoine Torunczyk - in close collaboration with the musicians of Concerto Copenhagen - has orchestrated Bach's six organ trio sonatas based on the Brandenburg Concertos. In working on the new "Brandenburg Concertos", Antoine Torunczyk and the musicians have followed the originals in several ways: both Bach's use of a wide range of instruments - including several that are very rare today - and the way Bach varies and mixes instrumentation and function - solo and accompanying - have served as inspiration, and MON will be able to experience oboe da caccia, viola d´amore and violoncello da spalla, among others. The aim is that the original three-part music from the organ trio sonatas now appears bright, light and transparent with a wide color palette from the exotic baroque instruments.
