Musikalisches Opfer, BWV 1079
Album by Johann Sebastian Bach & Festival Strings Lucerne & Rudolf Baumgartner
Musikalisches Opfer, BWV 1079, is a collection of contrapuntal pieces by Johann Sebastian Bach composed in 1747. The work is rooted in Baroque counterpoint and uses a royal theme as the basis for multiple canons and a complex fugue, and it comes from Bach's late period when he engaged with learned contrapuntal forms.
