Celestial Conflict and Resolution:Motets by JC and JS Bach-Thomas Tallis Society

The Thomas Tallis Society Choir and Orchestra of The Sixteen, conducted by Eamonn Dougan, will perform two spectacular cantatas for the feast of St Michael, portraying the battle for heaven, by two members of the Bach family: Johann Sebastian and his uncle Johann Christoph. These cantatas frame two more reflective works, the beautiful funeral motet O Jesu Christ, mein Lebens Licht and cantata 82, Ich habe genug, performed on this occasion in its less familiar version for tenor solo. The Thomas Tallis Society are delighted to welcome back renowned Bach specialist Nicholas Mulroy as soloist. The programme also includes the JS Bach motet Lobet den Herrn and BWV50 Nun ist das Heil und die Kraft, long assumed to be part of a lost cantata.
