Mendelssohn's Piano Trio No. 1 immerses us in a journey of musical anthems, highlighting the use of the Lutheran chorale "Gelobet seist Du, Jesu Christ" in its final movement.

On the other hand, in his Sonata No. 2, Busoni invites us to experience the grandeur of an anthem through the chorale by Bach, "Wie wohl ist mir, o Freund der Seelen." Thus, this program connects us with the richness of choral tradition.

It is also a testimony that these composers helped kindle the flame of Bach’s music, by recovering his repertoire and being inspired by his legacy.
