Bach Week welcomes back the world-class musicians of Tesserae Baroque, a period instrument ensemble specializing in repertoire of the Renaissance and Baroque periods! The music of Dietrich Buxtehude was a profound influence on Bach’s style. In this program, Tesserae and festival bass John Buffet will explore works by Buxtehude and his contemporaries alongside selected early Italian works — which in turn had a profound influence on the early German style. Featuring vocal cantatas alongside virtuosic instrumental works, this program traces the thread between the early Baroque style and the music of J.S. Bach.
