Bach from the Leipzig Bach Festival 2019.
Penny Gore introduces two works recorded at St Thomas Church. One of Bach's grand fantasias is played on the church's 'Bach organ’, constructed in 2000, by the composer's successor as cantor at the church. And that is followed by one of the Bach's orchestral suites played by one of Germany's top period music ensembles.
