Govert Jan Bach’s weekday programme about the oeuvre of Johann Sebastian Bach.
Episode 1089. This week, we focus on Austrian soprano Miriam Feuersinger. Her album ‘J.S. Bach – Ich bin vergnügt…’ was released in early 2022, and you can listen to it on this programme later this week. We will also hear Feuersinger perform Bach cantatas with Rudolf Lutz, among others. In addition, we will devote some time to J.S. Bach’s sons.
