The motets of Johann Sebastian Bach are famously among the most beautiful and powerful choral works ever written. Rarely heard, but full of beauty and interest, is the music of his father’s brother, Johann Christoph, revered as one of the most gifted of a famously musical family.

‘virtuosic fioritura and vivid articulation of text and musical texture were combined in a performance of prayerfulness, playfulness and uninhibited, unmediated expressiveness. Were Grinling Gibbons’s carved cherubs to burst into song, they might sound like Solomon’s Knot.’ – The Times 

Coffee, tea, soft drinks and biscuits served from 10am – 10.45am in the Church Hall
