YouTube Channel stigekalder

The content of my YouTube channel

My YouTube channel stigekalder presents many videos with music by Johann Sebastian Bach and older members of his family (mostly vocal). The Bach family was important in the history of music for nearly two hundred years and produced over 50 known musicians and composers.

The focus is and has been choral music, but I have also toured the keyboard sonatas by Scarlatti, and a certain Danish poem by J. P. Jacobsen, set by many Nordic composers.

If you like Bach (which I assume since you are here 😊), you may like Domenico Scarlatti as well? Both were born in the same miraculous year of 1685, which also saw the birth of George Frideric Handel.
I have made a number of videos combining the recording of a Scarlatti sonata with the score. Click here for the full playlist.
You may have a personal favourite among the sonatas which I haven’t done yet? I can do that – check out this page!

Bach family music examples

Most often the score is presented in the video in parallel with the music. Here are some examples (which are followed by links to my YouTube playlists with Bach music):
