Bach Mass in B Minor, BWV 232
In a thrilling new collaboration between The 24, soloists from I Fagiolini and Manchester Baroque (to be repeated in Manchester Cathedral on 30 March), come and experience Bach's enigmatic mass – not seemingly written for a specific occasion, but one of the truly great works of Baroque music. Enjoy the dance metre that underpins everything, the 'danced' discussion in the arias between solo instruments and voices and the sheer virtuosic thrill and panache with baroque trumpets and drums in the great choruses.
