In this workshop, Xoán Elías Castiñeira and Rudolf Lutz explore J.S. Bach's cantata BWV 11 «Lobet Gott in seinen Reichen» (Laud to God in all his kingdoms). This cantata tells the Story of Ascension. One of the most striking questions it seems to raise is, however: Is it really a cantata - or actually rather an oratorio?

The "Bach Factory" is a video series by the J.S. Bach-Stiftung St. Gallen that gives you interesting insights into Bach's cantatas - including exclusive excerpts from their live performance.
