© De Waalse Kerk Bach on Friday: Bach & Beach
Amsterdam, De Waalse Kerk
About the Event
Immerse yourself in the stunning architecture of Amsterdam's breathtaking De Waalse Kerk for the ultimate concert set to awake your understanding of music.
Chamber Choir PA'dam and De Waalse Kerk present some of Bach's most beautiful cantatas in the series “Bach on Friday.” Each concert will focus on one cantata, always showing Bach in a different light. Start your weekend off right with perhaps the greatest composer who ever lived: Johann Sebastian Bach.
What about female composers in the Baroque era? How did contemporaries Bach and Handel relate to each other? Get to know Bach and pearls of other composers better with chamber choir PA'dam and the Nicolaas Consort. In a carefully composed program by artistic director Maria van Nieukerken and organist Wim Dijkstra, you will not only have the opportunity to enjoy beautiful music, but you will also learn more about the composers themselves. With live musical examples and explanations by expert Gustavo Trujillo, the music comes to life!
