In 2020, well-known composer and conductor Prof. Rudolf Lutz (St. Gallen / Switzerland)
commissioned a
„Concerto in Re per diversi strumenti“ for two violins, viola, bassoon, violoncello and basso continuo
which premiered on June 16, 2022 at the International Bach Festival in Leipzig’s Old Town Hall.
The concerto is both a tribute to Johann Sebastian Bach (1685-1750)
and a gift to the Bach orchestras of the world.
The concerto is in the public domain, meaning anyone can perform
or record, or broadcast it without needing to purchase a license or pay a royalty.
For this purpose, the entire score and an audio recording
under the direction of the composer
is available here for download.
