Vocal Duets

11/2/2016

by Rebecca Cochran

In his Cantata BWV 66 Erfreut euch, ihr Herzen (Rejoice, you hearts), Bach treats us to two vocal duets! The fifth movement, scored for alto, tenor and virtuoso violin is one of my favorites.

Enjoy this video recording featuring soloists Alex Potter, alto and Julius Pfeifer, tenor with the J.S. Bach Foundation and conductor, Rudolf Lutz.

My Year of Bach.

This is an experiment.
I love Bach: listening to Bach; playing Bach (alone or with others); discovering Bach; learning from Bach; sharing Bach.

I need Bach in my daily life.

So, for 2016, I'm challenging myself to write a short daily post about Bach. Come along for the ride, if you're so inclined. Let's listen, share and learn together!
