Bach in Lugano
Bach fans can look forward to a special event at the Lugano LAC: Luca Pianca and his Ensemble
Claudiana have created a veritable Bach feast, honouring the composer with the double concerto in d minor and three of
his most beautiful cantatas: Himmelskönig, sei willkommen (BWV 182), Wir müssen durch viel Trübsal (BWV 146), and Herz und
Mund und That und Leben (BWV 147) – featuring the hauntingly beautiful chorale ‘Jesus, Joy of Man’s Desiring.
The collaboration with Pianca's specialist ensemble dates back to 2008; since then, 90 cantatas, Christmas Oratorio and St John Passion have been performed at the Wiener Konzerthaus. Luca Pianca can also be seen in ‘Good Shepherds’ (2017/2022) – one of Curt Faudon’s movies on the Vienna Boys Choir, accompanying flutist Dorothee Oberlinger and the choir in a rococo scene – in period costume.

The Vienna Boys Choir is a private charity which does not receive regular subsidies, but funds itself through concerts, recordings,
sponsorship, and donations.
During the COVID pandemic, we have had to cancel almost 800 performances - so we lost the income of three years.
Please help us, if you can. Your donation - however small - is much appreciated.
