Rondeau, Jean | Bach Imagine | CD

Johann Sebastian Bach was a German composer and organist, born on 21 March 1685 in Eisenach, Thuringia. His sacred and secular works for choir, orchestra and solo instruments brought the baroque genre to its maturity, and he enriched the German style with contrapuntal technique and with rhythms and textures from Italy and France. He was Thomascantor at Leipzig from 1723 until his death. His works include the Brandenburg concertos, the keyboard suites and partitas, the Mass in B minor and the St Matthew Passion.

The recording was made at Notre Dame du Bon Secours in Paris from 2 to 6 June 2014.
