Programme Note
Please join us for a family concert with a difference! Not only a concert for the whole family, but one celebrating the family of perhaps the greatest composer of western music, Johann Sebastian Bach.
Devon Baroque presents a lovely concert featuring two of his iconic pieces – the solo cantata ‘Ich habe genug’ for solo bass with obbligato oboe, and Brandenburg Concerto No. 4 – as well as lesser-known pieces by Wilhelm Friedmann and Carl Philipp Emanuel (his two eldest sons), and Johann Bernhard (a 2nd cousin and his student). J.S. Bach also arranged for harpsichord some of his favourite concertos by Georg Philipp Telemann (godfather to C.P.E. Bach) and Johann Ernst, prince of Saxe-Weimar.
We're delighted to welcome soloists, Tim Mirfin (bass) and Sarah Humphrys (oboe and recorder).
This concert is dedicated to oboist, Heather Williams (1928-2026)
