From Church to Tavern: Christmas Cantatas by Christoph Graupner & English tavern songs

Graupner initially pipped Bach to the post of Kantor in Leipzig. Although well preserved, his works fell into obscurity when his heirs were stopped from publishing them. Overall he composed a staggering 1442 cantatas, most of which remain to be discovered.

Fieri Consort and Camerata Øresund will present three cantatas together as well as Graupner’s double violin concerto which easily stands up to its famous counterpart by J.S. Bach along with some festive jollity likely to have been heard in English taverns during the 17th and 18th centuries.
