A forgotten revolutionary? The OAE and Rebecca Miller play CPE Bach

Julia Savage, 4th February

This Southbank Centre concert of five of Carl Philipp Emanuel Bach's symphonies, alongside his Concerto in E flat for Harpsichord and Fortepiano showed just how much of a revolutionary this oft-overlooked composer was. The OAE were conducted by Rebecca Miller.
