Music by Bach and Buxtehude

Bs and Bees

For our 2nd concert at the atmospheric Beer Lab in Brixton we offer some beautiful Baroque Music by JS Bach and Buxtehude.

As smitten as Bach was with the music of his hero Buxtehude, so are we with both their work. Join us if you feel the same! And if you need convincing, we are sure that a jovial evening in the company of these two composers will do the trick.

Concert length 60-70 min. Join us for a chat and a drink afterwards, together with Rebecca Harris Violin, Jan Zahourek Viola da gamba, Oliver John Ruthven Harpsichord.

The harmony of the Bee hive, the geometry of the honey-comb, and the vibrational dance is mirrored in the counterpoint and melodic invention of two composers whose cross- pollination led to the flowering of a style which defines German music of the High Baroque.

Buxtehude trio sonata in a minor, op 1 no 3
Buxtehude suite for harpsichord no 4 BuxWV 231
Bach sonata in D for viola da gamba and harpsichord
Buxtehude trio sonata op 2 no 1 in Bb major
Bach Violin sonata in e minor BWV 1023 for violin and continuo
Bach trio sonata in G for violin, viola da gamba and harpsichord (BWV 1027 arr. Zarek)
