Not quite&#8230; but almost! The two cantatas presented by Leonardo Garc\u00eda Alarc\u00f3n in Saint-Denis are a series of arias, duets and choruses, interspersed with recitatives that pitch characters against one another both musically and verbally. The first cantata (BWV 201) features an amusing artistic joust between Phoebus and Pan, who quarrel over who makes the most beautiful music. The second cantata (BWV 205), which was written in honour of a university professor (Auguste M\u00fcller), proves to be a vibrant plea for peace. Bach wrote these two drammi per musica for an unusually large orchestra. In the calmer sections, we can recognise the graceful and noble tenderness of his most beautiful sacred arias, but he also surprises us with his playfulness and comedic instincts in the contest between Phoebus and Pan.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-vertically-aligned-bottom is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Bach - &quot;Mit Verlangen dru\u0308cke ich deine zarten Wangen&quot; - BWV 201 (T.
