Les Délices: Bach’s Musical Offering
Taylor Johnston Early Music Series
J.S. Bach’s Musical Offering grows from a single musical theme given to him by Frederick the Great of Prussia. This collection of canons and fugues is the sonic equivalent of a drawing by M.C. Escher where a single melody is continually transformed in ways that challenge both the imagination and the intellect. Myriads of instrumental colors bring Bach’s intricate counterpoint to life in this special performance.
