Full Event Details
An evening of music by JS Bach, who learned the skill and flair of writing violin concertos from studying examples by Vivaldi. Alongside the well-known concertos in A minor and E major, Britain’s acclaimed baroque orchestra and its leader perform an audacious reconstruction of a harpsichord concerto, bringing it back to its original version for violin. The programme takes us heavenwards with the famous “Air on a G string” from the third Orchestral Suite.
