Sypert Early Music Concert: InAlto Ensemble

With works by J.S. Bach, Walther, Praetorius, Reiche and others, InAlto imagines the musical library of a group of wind instrumentalists in the18th century. Delving into collections from earlier centuries such as those of Leipzig’s Stadtpfeifer (town pipers), and the chorale melodies of the Lutheran Church, this programme provides an insight into the emotions and experiences of Leipzig’s citizens in the 16th and 17th centuries.
