陰鬱的巴哈 德米特里．辛柯夫斯基 小提琴/假聲男高音 Dmitry Sinkovsky / Bach in black

The charismatic and atypical musician, Dmitry Sinkovsky, expresses his artistry through three different musical means: as violinist, conductor and countertenor. A rare combina-tion that Sinkovsky presents at the highest musical level on musical stages across the globe.

In his playing of multiple musical roles, Sinkovsky neatly reflects one of the main ide-as of the Baroque era: using the instrument as a singer's voice, and, conversely, the hu-man voice as the perfect instrument.

After virtuosic contributions as a violinist to the Vivaldi Edition, as well as a 2015 record-ing dedicated to the Prete rosso himself – with everything from the passion of the Four Seasons to opera arias and sacred music - Dmitry Sinkovsky now turns his hand to the ultimate musical reference: Bach.

The programme is carved around the spiritu-al, melancholic, oratorical and sometimes sombre force of the music of the master of Leipzig. Interspersed between the three con-certos for violin and their famous adagios (in which the expressiveness of Sinkovsky's playing is nothing short of a miracle), Sinkov-sky as countertenor sheds a new and very personal light on three of the purest jewels in the whole of music: 'Erbarme Dich' (St. Mat-thew Passion), 'Es Ist Volbracht' (Saint John Passion) and 'Agnus Dei' (Mass in B Minor).
