From the graceful opening aria, the ten variations unfold in ever-changing moods, colours and textures, revealing Bach’s Italianate influences through Calefax’s distinctive sound. A deeply personal final contribution, it celebrates the artistry, friendship and shared musical adventures that have shaped Althuis’ remarkable legacy with the ensemble. This digital-only single comes with a mobile booklet containing letters from the members of Calefax, including Jelte, reflecting on their journey together and sharing the memories they treasure most.
