About
Nederlands Bach Consort takes Bach somewhere unexpected. Rather than straight period performance, the ensemble teams up with jazz pianist Rik Elings to reimagine Bach's music through fresh arrangements for four singers and piano. Pieces like Erbarme dich and Aus Liebe get a genuinely different treatment, and the results are a long way from the concert hall orthodoxy you might expect. The group's approach connects to a broader point about Bach's reach: his harmonic and melodic ideas have quietly shaped artists as different as Procol Harum, The Beach Boys and Paul Simon. Nederlands Bach Consort leans into that legacy, finding the living pulse in music that is centuries old.
