Britain's What's On Event Guide
Chloë Hanslip and Danny Driver | Bach and Beyond II
The second in an exclusive series of concerts celebrating the influence of Johann Sebastian Bach.
Dmitri Shostakovich was an avid admirer of the music of Johann Sebastian Bach. Bach’s ‘The Well-Tempered Clavier’, is thought to be the direct inspiration for Shostakovich’s later set of 24 preludes and fugues.
This concert unites the two composers in a celebration of Bach’s enduring influence.
Violinist Chloë Hanslip first performed at Turner Sims in 2002, aged 15, a year after her BBC Proms debut. She has gone on to perform at major venues across the UK and Europe, as well as Carnegie Hall and Metropolitan Arts Space in Tokyo.
Pianist Danny Driver is recognised internationally as an artist of sophistication, insight and musical depth. He has performed with orchestras across the globe including the BBC Scottish Symphony, Orchestra of the Age of Enlightenment, Halle, Bournemouth Symphony and American Symphony.
Programme:
Bach - Sonata for Violin and Keyboard
Shostakovich - Preludes and Fugues for piano, Op 87 (selection)
Bach - Sonata for Violin and Keyboard
Shostakovich - Violin Sonata in G, Op 134
