A tribute to Bach and Buxtehude

In 1705, a young Johann Sebastian Bach traveled by foot more than 250 miles from Arnstadt to Lübeck to study with composer and organist Dieterich Buxtehude. This concert testifies to the monumental impact of their meeting with works from both composers and other titans of the Baroque era. Known for their stylistic versatility and sensitivity to the Baroque repertoire, Avery Fisher Career Grant winners Geneva Lewis and Jay Campbell (JACK Quartet) unite with the leader of Boston’s renowned Handel and Haydn Society, harpsichordist Jonathan Cohen, for this historically informed performance.
