JS Bach's cantatas lie at the heart of his musical output; a huge body of vocal and instrumental music composed to enhance and enrich religious ceremonies and social occasions. Festival 09 offers the chance to hear a selection of these ever beautiful, varied and compelling works alongside music by Michael Praetorius, Dietrich Buxtehude and George Frideric Handel.
