SUMMARY:Renaud Capuçon\, Bach\, and Mozart
DESCRIPTION:Hear violinist Renaud Capuçon make his OSL debut as both soloist and conductor in a program of vibrant and expressive works by Bach and Mozart. \nCapuçon brings his artistry to two pieces Mozart composed for Salzburg court violinist Antonio Brunetti—the Adagio\, K. 261\, and the Rondo\, K. 373. Although he was the Archbishop’s preferred violinist\, Mozart was not fond of Brunetti\, finding him crude and unrefined. When Brunetti complained that one of Mozart’s concerto movements was too serious\, Mozart begrudgingly wrote the Adagio as a substitute. A few years later\, the effortlessly charming Rondo was composed for a court soirée in Vienna. The program also features Mozart’s Symphony No. 29\, a work of youthful brilliance. Composed when he was just 18\, it marks a turning point in Mozart’s symphonic writing\, moving beyond the polish of his earlier works toward greater expressive depth. \nBach’s Violin Concerto in A Minor is one of his most enduring works\, admired since the 18th century. The orchestra’s assertive opening theme never appears in the soloist’s episodes\, making the violin’s entrance feel all the more striking. The middle Andante is intimate and tender\, while the finale thrillingly fuses gigue rhythms with fugal interplay. The evening also includes the opening of Bach’s Orchestral Suite No. 2\, written in the stately style of the French overture.

SUMMARY:Jean Rondeau and The Bach Dynasty
DESCRIPTION:Harpsichordist Jean Rondeau returns to lead OSL in the finale of this year’s Bach Festival with a program tracing the evolution of the Bach dynasty’s music across the 18th century. \nThe evening begins with Johann Christian Bach’s Concerto in F Minor\, an exciting work from the youngest son of J.S. Bach. J.C. embraced the lighter\, more melodic style of the Classical era\, a departure from his father’s intricate counterpoint. This lesser-known concerto brims with drama\, shifting from a stormy opening to a more intimate middle movement before closing with a rapid-fire finale. \nCarl Philipp Emanuel Bach\, whose music was prized for its unpredictability and expressive freedom\, is represented by his Concerto in D Minor\, a work steeped in the newly emerging Empfindsamer Stil (“sensitive style”). Emphasizing sudden contrasts\, restless harmonies\, and deeply personal expression\, it reflects his bold departure from Baroque formality. Rondeau also performs his transcription of C.P.E.’s Andante con tenerezza\, a movement of introspective journeying. \nThe program concludes with J.S. Bach’s Concerto in D Minor. Likely adapted from an earlier violin concerto\, it is filled with fierce virtuosity\, jagged rhythms\, and striking harmonic clashes. It’s Bach at his most dramatic and unrelenting\, and a thrilling finale to this exploration of a legendary musical lineage.

SUMMARY:Mishka Rushdie Momen Performs Bach
DESCRIPTION:Peter Whelan conducts pianist Mishka Rushdie Momen in a program centered on Bach’s Concerto in E Major\, BWV 1053. One of Bach’s most elegant and spirited keyboard concertos\, the work is notable for its lyrical central movement and the close interplay between soloist and ensemble. Whelan\, Artistic Director of the Irish Baroque Orchestra and incoming Music Director of Philharmonia Baroque Orchestra & Chorale\, brings deep experience in Baroque repertory\, while Rushdie Momen\, praised for the clarity and intelligence of her playing\, offers a refined approach to Bach’s music. Likely adapted from an earlier composition\, the concerto reflects Bach’s practice of reshaping existing material into works of striking freshness and balance.

SUMMARY:Bach and His Contemporaries
DESCRIPTION:Théotime Langlois de Swarte directs a program of works by Bach\, Telemann\, Pisendel\, and Vivaldi. The selection places Bach within a broader Baroque context\, drawing connections across composers active in different European centers.

SUMMARY:Riccardo Minasi Conducts Bach
DESCRIPTION:Riccardo Minasi leads a program that includes Bach’s Concerto for Two Violins in D minor\, a work notable for its rhythmic energy\, clear formal design\, and closely woven string writing. Its animated opening and closing movements frame a slower middle movement of greater lyricism. Minasi is known for his work in historically informed performance and serves as Principal Guest Conductor of Ensemble Resonanz and Artistic Director of Orchestra La Scintilla at the Zurich Opera House. His style is well suited to music that relies on clarity of texture and rhythmic precision.

SUMMARY:BACH 52: The Music of Bach for Everyone
DESCRIPTION:Grammy-winning tenor Nicholas Phan curates a program celebrating music that restores the spirit\, including Bach’s Ich armer Mensch\, ich Sündenknecht and a work by Christoph Graupner.  Phan is the creator of BACH 52\, a digital project centered on tenor arias and duets from Bach’s church cantatas and on the enduring resonance of this music for listeners today. One of Bach’s few cantatas for solo tenor\, Ich armer Mensch\, ich Sündenknecht is marked by its introspective character and notably demanding vocal writing. Long admired for his command of Baroque repertory from his celebrated tenure leading Philharmonia Baroque Orchestra\, Nicholas McGegan is Phan’s perfect partner in this exploration of reflection and joy in musical communion.
