Bach’s Christ Cantatas Opera and Forte Company (Budapest) Though Johann Sebastian Bach never wrote an opera, his vocal works reflect a deep understanding of dramaturgy. This production explores the theatrical potential of his bass-voiced Christ cantatas, using the tools of total theatre in an intimate setting—highlighting the music’s refined structure, rich symbolism, and emotional subtlety.
