Transcription as Translation by The Orchestra Now

There are moments in music when the familiar is made fresh, and the well-trodden illuminate anew. Such was the case when The Orchestra Now took the stage at Carnegie Hall under the baton of Leon Botstein, a conductor whose boundless energy and intellectual curiosity have long fueled concert programs of unparalleled originality.

American Symphony Orchestra: C. P. E. Bach at St. Barts

Carl Philipp Emanuel Bach, the second son of Johann Sebastian Bach, carved his unique identity in the musical world. Unlike his father’s baroque complexities, C. P. E. Bach’s compositions incorporated bold harmonic language, rhythmic intensity, and poetic drama. Tonight’s program showcased two of his masterpieces: Heilig, H.775, and the U.S. premiere of Die Auferstehung und Himmelfahrt Jesu, H.777. These works reflect a daring blend of tradition and innovation, qualities that inspired even Mozart to conduct three performances of Heilig in 1788.
