Experience Buxtehude’s profound influence on Bach
In 1705, the 20-year-old Johann Sebastian Bach journeyed 400 kilometres on foot from Arnstadt to Lübeck to meet and learn from the great composer Dietrich Buxtehude, then aged 70. During Bach’s three-month stay he would have experienced Buxtehude’s legendaryAbendmusiken,or “Evening Concerts”, with their mix of sacred vocal and instrumental music presented in St. Mary’s Church.
