Bach – The Revolution Version is an original orchestral show that reimagines Johann Sebastian Bach’s music. The show blends symphonic tradition with modern synthesizers, loopers, and ethnic instruments, thus creating a bridge between the baroque and the contemporary. Our show is The Revolution’s unique voice following the master’s melodies. We return to the origin – Bach – and use his masterpieces as a starting point for an artistic voyage. Join us to find our five talented composers’ own voices and interpretations.
