J.S. Bach: The Circle of Creation combines text, music, projected video and images to explore the world of the artisans — papermakers, violin carvers, string spinners, and performers — who helped J.S. Bach realize his musical genius. This all-Bach program is performed by Tafelmusik musicians entirely from memory with staging.  Musical highlights include Brandenburg Concerto No. 3, ‘Sheep may safely graze’from Cantata 208/9, Chorale “Wachet auf” from Cantata 42/7, excerpts from Goldberg Variations, BWV 988, solo Bach violin and cello sonatas, and trio sonatas.
