Music by Johann Sebastian Bach and Giovanni Battista Pergolesi

We are delighted to present an exceptional appointment with the participation of I Barocchisti and the Swiss Radio and Television Choir, conducted by Diego Fasolis as a preview of the prestigious Leipzig Bach Festival, the largest international gathering on Kantor Johann Sebastian Bach, this year dedicated to ‘Transformation’. Conducted by Diego Fasolis, the Swiss Radio and Television Choir, I Barocchisti and soloists Betty Makharinsky (soprano), Margot Oitzinger (alto), Bernhard Berchtold (tenor) and Henryk Böhm (bass) will present four Bach cantatas for Dominica Estomihi (Cantatas BWV 22, 23, 127, 159 ) as a Ticino preview of the concerts they will perform at the prestigious ‘Bachfest’ in Leipzig (19 and 20 June 2025). Deeply affected by the catastrophe in Blatten, the concert will support the fundraising efforts for the population of the valley.
