This ‘Intimate Notes’ concert showcases our historical instruments at their very best. With a selection of solo pieces and works for small groups of musicians, you will hear the beauty of each instrument in breathtaking detail.

This programme highlights the wealth and variety of music composed by the Bach family. As well as the father (Johann Sebastian), we showcase rarely performed music by sons Johann Christian, Carl Philipp Emanuel and Wilhelm Friedmann. Telemann gets an honorary Bach family membership, as he was the Godfather to CPE. Join us as we perform music by the most talented family the world has ever known!
