Full Event Details
The programme brings together an anachronistic dialogue between Johann Sebastian Bach, Monique Gabus and Imogen Holst around the cello, conceived as a meeting place between eras and people with very different feelings. The common thread that links the different pieces is the desire to show how the same instrument can be used to express a wide spectrum of feelings and emotions around the autumnal melancholy of the cello.
