A journey to the heart of Johann Sebastian Bach's powerful spirituality. A journey that touches on the sublime, as this strikingly beautiful territory unfolds with great care and humanity.

Highlands concludes the tetralogy around Bach, this time accompanied by the music of Henry Purcell, György Kurtág, Benjamin Britten, Arvo Pärt and Friedrich Haendel, performed with brio. White light and inner darkness. Highlands is a mystical, celestial quest, a moment of pure beauty.
