Few works capture the brilliance, joy and genius of Johann Sebastian Bach quite like his six Brandenburg Concertos. In this special concert, the internationally acclaimed Bach Collegium Japan performs the complete set under the direction of Masato Suzuki.

Renowned for their performances on period instruments, the ensemble has earned global praise for bringing both scholarly insight and remarkable musical energy to Bach’s works. Critics have praised their performances for their “vitality and joy” and “combining academic precision with profound emotional warmth and rhythmic vitality” (The New York Times).

A BBC review said it all: "the performers live and breathe Bach's music with as much immediacy as if it had been composed yesterday."

This extraordinary performance showcasing Bach’s profound masterpieces by an award-winning ensemble promises to be one of the most memorable highlights of the season.
