J.S. Bach served as music director of the St. Thomas Church Boys’ Choir from 1723 to 1750; during that time, the choir premiered many of Bach’s major vocal works and has continued to play a vital role in preserving Bach’s musical legacy to this day. Furthermore, for this series of anniversary concerts, the choir commissioned new works (some of which were revised premieres) from contemporary composers and performed them for the first time, adding yet another chapter to its 800-year history. It is particularly poignant that “Festmusik zu Pfingsten: Auf dem Wind” (Festive Music for Pentecost: On the Wind) by Hans Werner Henze, a master of contemporary music, became virtually his swan song.\nTobu Land System\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Querstand","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53595526332705,"sku":"4025796013153","price":486.0,"currency_code":"SEK","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0568\/8482\/2076\/files\/4025796013153.jpg?v=1790481492","url":"https:\/\/cdsvinyljapan.com\/en-se\/products\/4025796013153","provider":"CDs Vinyl Japan Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
