Michi Gaigg, conductor
Johann Sebastian Bach’s four orchestral suites, presumably written over a period of around 20 years from 1718 onwards, each of which is a free sequence of dance movements preceded by an overture, are among the most popular pieces of Baroque music and contain some of the best-known pieces of classical music, such as the Badinerie (dalliance) that concludes the 2nd Suite or the Air (melody) that comes second in the 3rd Suite. This veritable hit parade is presented in its original sound by the L’Orfeo Barockorchester under the direction of Michi Gaigg.

Good Friday 1724: Johann Sebastian Bach’s St. John Passion is heard for the first time in Leipzig’s St. Nicholas’s Church. “If we are able to play and hear this music three hundred years later, I am struck by only one thing: this music contains an enormous power that repeatedly moves us as deeply as if we were experiencing it for the first time,” says cathedral choirmaster Valentin Kunert, Music Director of the newly-formed Domkantorei St. Pölten, which brings this masterpiece to Festspielhaus St. Pölten along with the L’Orfeo Barockorchester.

In the anniversary year 2024, Bruckner’s D minor Mass, the first of his works in which the later symphonist’s personal signature is clearly recognisable, will be heard again at the place of its premiere, the Old Cathedral in Linz. But that is not all: some of the participants in this concert also have close links to Bruckner’s biography. The Hard Choir, for example, emerged from the Linz Liedertafel „Frohsinn“, which Anton Bruckner led as choir master from 1860 to 1861 and in 1868, and with which he premiered the final chorus of Richard Wagner’s opera Die Meistersinger von Nürnberg. The male choir of former St. Florian Boys Choir, in turn, recalls that Bruckner’s own musical career began as a choirboy of this monastery, whose organist he later became and under whose organ he is buried. With the L’Orfeo Baroque Orchestra under its founder Michi Gaigg, a top ensemble from Upper Austria and an important Upper Austrian conductor are also at work to pay homage to their great compatriot on his 200th birthday.
