To coincide with the Bach Heritage festival, BOZAR is inviting you to discover a series of amateur Belgian choirs that combine a refreshing enthusiasm with very high standards. This celebration to honour Johan Sebastian Bach obviously features the composer's vocal music, including motets, cantatas and chorales extracted from this sublime and inexhaustible body of work.
On the occasion of the Bach Heritage festiva, BOZAR LITERATURE has asked a number of poets to write a poet on Bach for the publication of"Thirteen Ways of Looking at J.S. Bach".
