Solomon's Knot: Bach Motets

Elements of JS Bachs motet style can be traced back to the previous generation of his family, when his fathers cousins Johann Christoph and Johann Michael Bach experimented with soprano chorale cantus firmus and audacious harmonic language at the service of the text. Alongside Johann Sebastians well-known masterpieces, Solomons Knot perform a number of works by the profound and expressive Johann Christoph, as JSB himself did in Leipzig in the final years of his life.
