Mini-conférence : Bach, un itinéraire

Whether in the service of a prince or a city council, the various positions Johann Sebastian Bach held during his life influenced his musical output. Exploiting the idea of making a stopover in each of these places of creation, Luc Beauséjour offers a chronological panorama of his harpsichord works, which, unlike the other genres he tackled, cover his entire life. In his mini-conferences, the Montreal harpsichordist addresses different aspects of works corresponding to each period of Bach’s life.
