Solomon's Knot

Bach - Motets

The Solomon’s Knot collective, named as “one of the UK’s most innovative and imaginative ensembles” according to The Observer, is made up of top instrumentalists and singers. They bring early music to life, pushing the boundaries on stage. These regulars at international major venues and music festivals offer nothing less than the complete Grands motets by J.S. Bach, the apotheosis of polyphonic vocal music.

Johann Sebastian Bach (1685-1750)
Fürchte dich nicht BWV 228
Komm, Jesu, komm BWV 229
Jesu, meine Freude BWV 227
Der Geist hilft unser Schwachheit auf BWV 226
Singet dem Herrn ein neues Lied BWV 225

Johann Christoph Bach (1671-1721)
Fürchte dich nicht
Lieber Herr Gott, wecke uns auf
Herr, nun lässest du deinen Diener in Friede fahren
Der Gerechte, ob er gleich zu zeitlich stirbt
