Fugue-ality
A page from Johann Sebastian Bach’s manuscript of the sinfonia from Cantata BWV 75. The movement’s four-part instrumental fugue crowned with a soaring chorale melody is nearly singular within Bach’s entire corpus of ensemble music. [Image via the fabulous Bach Digital project]
If you’re in Iowa hear it performed tonight alongside a selection of instrumental pieces from the composer’s secular and liturgical cantatas.
