During the BI January Intensive we invite a group of auditioned talented young musicians for a 10-day exploration of Bach’s marvelous cantata repertoire, including lectures, masterclasses, open rehearsals, and stimulating conversations. Bach’s music is fully alive at Emmanuel Music; come watch us play in our living laboratory, testing and examining sound, text, and structure to discover the underlying messages in the music.
