Bachfest Leipzig

Lautten Compagney Berlin – founded in 1984 – guarantee a creative take on Baroque music. Led by Wolfgang Katschner, the ensemble never fails to surprise us with their unusual programmes, new concert formats and cross-genre arrangements in a variety of instrumental formations. However, in Leipzig, the recent winners of the OPUS Klassik Ensemble of the Year award will be performing unadulterated Bach. Audiences will have the simultaneous opportunity to hear one of the best Scandinavian choirs, Eric Ericsons Kammarkör.
