Summary
Harpsichordist Mahan Esfahani and violist Lars Anders Tomter perform works by J.S. Bach, W.F. Bach, Poul Ruders, and György Kurtág at LSO St Luke’s.
Why it's fantastic
Witness how the brittle, metallic sparkle of the harpsichord meets the earthy warmth of the viola in this hour-long lunchtime recital. You will hear how JS Bach’s structured mastery flows into the playful syncopation of a modern rag, proving that these centuries-old instruments still have plenty of surprises left.
