Debut of Reinoud Van Mechelen's baroque orchestra
Reinoud Van Mechelen has performed as a tenor with conductors such as William Christie, Philippe Herreweghe and Christophe Rousset. In 2016, he finally founded his own ensemble: a nocte temporis. His aim is to present baroque music in a historical style and at the same time to move the audience directly and emotionally. a nocte temporis is now making its debut at the Wiener Konzerthaus in the »Bach Cantatas« cycle with soprano Lore Binon, countertenor Alex Potter and bass Tomáš Král. Reinoud Van Mechelen himself takes on the role of tenor.
Bach cantatas from three of his Leipzig cycles
Solo and choral cantatas from his three Leipzig cantata cycles are on the programme. After a confession of sins (»Ach, lieben Christen, seid getrost« BWV 114) and praise for the goodness of God (»Erhöhtes Fleisch und Blut« BWV 173), the Christmas cantatas »Süßer Trost, mein Jesus kömmt« BWV 151 and »Liebster Immanuel, Herzog der Frommen« BWV 123 tell of the joy of Jesus' birth and love for the Lord - with enchanting choruses and touching arias.
