Author, broadcaster (notably on Proms Extra) and virtuoso pianist David Owen Norris makes a welcome return to SVF to present a specially devised recital exploring the role of counterpoint in J.S. Bach’s music, and the creative ways composers from Mozart to Vaughan Williams responded to it. The programme includes a complete performance of Mendelssohn’s Six Preludes and Fugues Op. 35.
