This concert is part of the WTC 300 (Bach's Well-Tempered Clavier 300th anniversary, 2022) project by Sam Post and Ralitza Patcheva, where they rhythmically re-imagine JS Bach's music.
From Sam Post's website: For three centuries, students, musicians and listeners alike have studied and revered these Preludes and Fugues as preeminent exemplars of Bach's contrapuntal mastery.For the 300th anniversary, my colleague Ralitza Patcheva and I are re-writing the entire book, 24 Preludes and Fugues, in a new, syncopated rhythmic style.
