A truly prize-winning German debut: the New York ensemble, Roomful of Teeth, honoured in 2014 with a Grammy, are impressive with their a cappella sound which crosses the boundaries between classical and pop. They present two works at the Bach Festival which are inspired by Bach in different ways: David Lang’s Passion, with reference to the St Matthew Passion, and the Partita by Caroline Shaw who is herself a member of the ensemble. Both have been recognised with the famous Pulitzer Prize for their works, Shaw as the youngest every prize-winner.
