We Say...
Johann Sebastian Bach (1685-1750) was perhaps the greatest composer who ever lived; a man whose music balanced heart and head in a way that has given it appeal to people of many different temperaments, creeds and races. As well as being a technician of extraordinary virtuosity (the intricacy of some of his compositions beggars belief), he was also a man of deep religious conviction, but — and this I think makes him so fascinating as a man — it was a conviction tempered (some would say strengthened) by the trials and tribulations of his daily life. The Mass in B minor dates from 1749, though parts of it were clearly written much earlier. Bach was a Lutheran, but the essentially Roman Catholic Mass was admitted into this Protestant worship. Besides, no Catholic setting of the Mass even approaches Bach's for the power and passion of its writing. Herreweghe's performance, elegant yet heartfelt, is a supreme achievement.
