There are melodies that accompany us for a lifetime. You twist and turn them, they can inspire, give hope or comfort. For Johann Sebastian Bach [1685-1750] it was a simple hymn: O head full of blood and wounds. He used this melody again and again, in various settings, in some of his greatest works such as the Christmas Oratorio or the St Matthew Passion. It runs through his life as a red thread, like this concept album: Ebenbild is a continuous narrative in which the boundaries between musical genres and between music and language are blurred.

In Ebenbild we unfold this song, which has many different names, in all its facets. We begin with the original version, the simple madrigal and gem of early baroque poetry Mein Gmuth ist mir verconfurt by Hans Leo Hassler [1564-1612]. Based on these five stanzas of text by an anonymous poet, we develop a narrative about five main works, each of which decodes an aspect of the poem. Between them we place the very different chorale versions of Bach and recite the respective text stanzas, always attacca integrated into the musical dramaturgy.
