1708: Bach moves to Weimar. In the second part of the series, devoted to the different life stages of the composer, Paul Agnew and Les Arts Florissants show how he appropriated the means of the church cantata. He borrowed from the French style and reinterpreted the Italian concerto, and with his genius he gave the genre its permanent form and opened new paths for it.
