Bach Inspirations
Program: Biscuits & Bach
Aired: Sunday, November 25, 2018 @ 7:00 am
Hosted by Rachel Stewart
Bach’s influence on composers and musicians of many genres has been evident the past 200 years. On his latest album, 24-year-old French (with Spanish heritage) guitarist, Thibaut Garcia, presents a wonderful program of 19th and 20thcentury music inspired by Johann Sebastian Bach. Taking the mighty Bach Chaconne as his centerpiece, Garcia ranges wide from Charles Gounod’s beloved “Ave Maria” and Villa-Lobos’s Bachianas Brasileiras No 5 to music by Agustín Barrios Mangoré, Alexandre Tansman, and the contemporary Serbian-American composer Dušan Bogdanovic. We’ll listen to several tracks on this week’s program.
