About the event
In this innovative performance, J S Bach's baroque keyboard masterpiece is supplemented by a contemporary reimagining through three specially commissioned variations by up-and-coming composers Louise Drewett, Philip Dutton, and Farhad Poupel.
Seamlessly woven into Bach’s original thirty variations, these modern additions create fascinating dialogues between the music of the past and the music of today.
Don’t miss this unique opportunity to hear Bach’s monumental work for the keyboard and three centuries of musical evolution converge in a single, unforgettable performance.
