Three composers, three instruments and three musical lines. How much variety can you draw from one small number? Quite a bit it turns out, as The Brook Street Band takes a musical journey originating in Lutheran Germany and ending in cosmopolitan London. Stories of Popes and Cardinals in Rome, bustling business and gambling debts in Hamburg, and city life in Leipzig. JS Bach, Handel and Telemann are the three greatest German baroque composers yet each led radically different lives, both personal and professional. 'The Power of Three' celebrates the trio sonata, one of the greatest forms of baroque chamber music, and shows just how exciting and creative a vehicle it is. Prepare for some musical fireworks…
