Facts about Bach : 1 : Coffee Cantata
Though Johannes Sebastian Bach was more famous for writing sacred pieces, the occasional secular gem showed Bach to be a humorous and inventive chap. Described as a mini comic opera, 'Schweigt stille, plaudert nicht' ('Be still, stop chattering') it concerns the characters' addiction to coffee and was most likely first performed in a Leipzig coffee house.
In an effort to share the wonderful compositions of Johann Sebastian Bach to everyone, especially to the new generation, Bacholoji Channel was created. For 14 years, we keep sharing videos of different artists/performers all over the world who are inspired by Johann Sebastian Bach and the Baroque music.
We know that our most viewed videos are Bach's Badinerie and Maisky's Bach Cello Suites but aside from these, there are more awesome performances to watch and listen to. By the way some people are here because of Haiji :)
In this channel you can find videos of great musicians or what we call the virtuoses, such as Ton Koopman, Philippe Herreweghe, Jordi Savall, Mischa Maisky, Freiburg Baroque Orchestra, Karl Richter, Rene Jacobs and all other Baroque Music enthusiasts.
