The
Musical Offering BWV 1079 (
Musikalisches Opfer) is one of the last and definitely one of the most emblematic and enigmatic works by J. S. Bach. The four musicians will perform an original recitation of the complete work which, apart from the notable Trio-sonata for flute, violin and basso continuo, includes
Ricercari for three and six voices, as well as all of his ingenious Canons-riddles that Bach composed based on the royal theme that was given to him by King Frederick II of Prussia.
