Full Event Details
Ensemble 360 is joined by leading harpsichordist Steven Devine for this special evening of music by three members of the Bach family. CPE Bach’s powerfully energetic Flute Concerto opens the concert (the final movement is a veritable fireworks display of virtuosity), while WF Bach’s Harpsichord Concerto puts the harpsichord centre stage with rapid passages off-set by punchy strings. The recital ends with one of the great masterpieces of the Baroque period – JS Bach’s Brandenburg Concerto No.5 – a joyful, triumphant work featuring a harpsichord solo of dazzling dexterity, as well as intricate melodies with flute and strings.
