    Spirit of Bach; Music Matters, Sat 23/12/17; 12:15

    Fresh from her BaL on the "Brandenburg" Concertos, Sara Mohr-Pietsch presents a Music Matters special edition as part of the Bach mini-fest. In separate items, she is joined by Rinaldo Alessandrini, Marcus du Sautoy, Steven Devine and Tara Shears, and Matt Herskowitz, and Gabriela Montero.

    Sara Mohr-Pietsch explores what lies beneath Bach's music with Angela Hewitt and others.


    (Repeated on Sunday evening at 9:30.)

    She's rather busy! Should be rather good!
    Don’t cry for me
    I go where music was born

    J S Bach 1685-1750

      Terribly sorry to hear of David Watkin's illness, which I hadn't previously known.

        Same here. Though I already have his Cello Suites recordings as mp3s, I have just ordered the CD double album, partly to add the booklet notes.

            Marcus de Sautoy's contribution was a waste of time, I thought; oversimplistic and superficially anecdotal - the sort of thing that repels me in the "guest spots" on Essential Classics.

                ... I have found this to be the case each time he's on the wireless - and he's on often enuff, being one of 'Lord' Melvyn's faves, and an all-round useful rent-a-quote. Lord, he's pleased with himself. At least this time he didn't trot out his trumpet playing prowess...

                  I heard a bit of the programme and didn't much like what Gabriela Montero had to say.

                    Alison's got one of them - or quite often says she has.
                    Never seen one. What are they?

                    I think she's a lovely wayward pianist with heaps of personality.
