Work: Well-Tempered Clavier 1: Prelude and Fugue No. 22 in B Flat Minor, BWV867

Wednesday night’s concert was the first in the Orchestra of St John’s Proms at the Ashmolean series of the new year. John Lubbock led the orchestra, the OSJ Ashmolean Voices and soloists Johnny Herford and Louise Wayman through lively performances of Handel’s Apollo e Dafne and J.S. Bach’s Liebster Jesu, mein Verlagen.

Trotz Makel führte die Beethovennacht in eine leuchtende Hoffnung, die den guten Willen anerkennt, Neugehörtes und den herausragenden Solisten Tobias Koch würdigt.
