A week intensive with Bach
BachPlus invites 4 to 8 singers (SSAATTBB) for an intensive and inspiring work week around the music of Johann Sebastian Bach.
Under the name BachPlus Class, we work together for several days on repertoire that allows for individual development, vocal coaching, and collective music-making.
The singers are guided by BachPlus coaches and guest teachers: Ilse Eerens, Amaryllis Dieltiens, Patrick Beuckels and Bart Naessens.
What's on the agenda?
Each participant works on:
• 2 arias of your choice by Bach
• 1 obbligato aria to be chosen from one of Bach's passions.
In addition, under the direction of artistic director Bart Naessens, we are working together towards a joint performance of: Komm, Jesu, komm (motet, BWV 229)
