Bach's inspiration

Sun, May 10, 2026, 15:00
Johanna Soller (Conductor), Carine Tinney (Soprano), Alex Potter (Alto), Daniel Johannsen (Tenor), Matthias Winckhler (Bass)
How can a text inspire a composer? And what happens if you give three composers the same poem as a source for their music? Conductor Johanna Soller shows us the result in a programme of beautiful music by Bach and the contemporary composer Gregor A. Mayrhofer.A brand-new cantata“In 1726, after years of unimaginable creativity and zest for work, Bach suddenly takes things a bit easier. He composes less, but what he does write has one particular source of inspiration: an anthology of poems from the beginning of the eighteenth century, by Duke Ernst Ludwig of Saxe-Meiningen. In 1726, Bach also performs many cantatas by his cousin Johann Ludwig Bach. And what was Johann Ludwig’s source of inspiration? That same anthology of poems. Now, 300 years later, the young German composer Gregor A. Mayrhofer takes a fresh look at the poetry, to create a brand-new cantata, written especially for this programme.

St Matthew Passion

Fri, Apr 4, 2025, 19:00
Muziekgebouw, Hertog Jan Zaal (Eindhoven)
Hans-Christoph Rademann (Conductor), Benedikt Kristjánsson (Evangelist), Carine Tinney (Soprano), Kristen Witmer (Soprano), Terry Wey (Alto), Olivia Vermeulen (Alto), Georg Poplutz (Tenor), James Gilchrist (Tenor), Matthias Winckhler (Bass), Tobias Berndt (Bass), Kampen Boys Choir
Every year, for more than a century, we have been performing one of Bach’s most popular works: the St Matthew Passion. This year, the prominent German conductor Hans-Christoph Rademann is leading our ensemble.Bach’s masterly music keeps moving us“Betrayal, condemnation and death, but above all – love. Although the words of the St Matthew Passion are age-old, the story and the message are still relevant today. And every year, Bach’s masterly music moves us once again. Bach’s masterpiece is in good hands with Rademann. In every St Matthew Passion he performs, this real Bach man – founder of the Dresdner Kammerchor, artistic director of the Bachakademie Stuttgart and regular name at the international music festival Bachfest – seeks out a new contemporary approach, always keeping a careful eye on the monumental character of the work. For decades, he has been one of the most successful choral conductors in Germany. Plenty of reason, therefore, to invite Rademann as the guest conductor for our traditional Passion concerts.
