The Hamburger Liedertafel of 1823, the oldest male choir in Hamburg, consisted exclusively of male singers for over 200 years. The choir was founded by the composer and music teacher Albert Methfessel, who composed the Hamburg anthem »Hammonia«, among others. To promote the tradition, the young male choir »Bengelsstimmen« joined the Hamburger Liedertafel association. As part of the »Join Generation: Experience Tradition – Shape the Future« project, the 200th anniversary was celebrated with a concert in the Elbphilharmonie concert hall. In order to shape the future, the women's choir »Tontöchter« was founded within the Hamburger Liedertafel as part of the »Create Future« project. This unique event after 200 years is now being celebrated with a concert in the Laeiszhalle.

Which work did Bach regard as his finest? There’s a good chance it might have been the Mass in B Minor. This programme presents the foundations of this masterpiece: three cantatas that Bach used at the end of his life, in the Mass in B Minor.The originals of what is maybe the very finest of Bach’s work“For example, the ‘Patrem omnipotentem’ originated from Gott, wie dein Name, so ist auch dein Ruhm, the ‘Osanna’ from Preise dein Glücke, gesegnetes Sachsen, and the ‘Agnus Dei’ from Lobet Gott in seinen Reichen. Richard Egarr leads the ensemble in these originals of what is maybe the very finest of Bach’s work. Egarr is a true specialist in early music, with his roots in English choral music. He likes to approach the music as if he is discovering it on the spot. Fresh and flowing, with a starring role for the vocals.
