With this concert in the Elbphilharmonie, the Köthen Bach Collective is celebrating a premiere: for the first time, the festival orchestra of the Köthen Bach Festival is performing outside the small Bach town in Saxony-Anhalt. The ensemble, founded in 2016, regularly comes together for the Köthen Festival from all over the world. An ensemble of the highest quality that has also attracted international attention since its first CD release last year. The direction is in the hands of two exceptional violinists: Midori Seiler, professor of baroque violin at the Folkwang University of the Arts in Essen, and Mayumi Hirasaki, professor at the Mozarteum in Salzburg. Around them, a cross-generational collective of international specialists has developed that can hardly be surpassed in its joy of playing and perfection – inspired by the historical place where the majority of Bach’s ensemble repertoire was created.
