The towering genius of Johann Sebastian Bach is the focus of this superb concert, which contrasts four of his works with two seminal 20th-century pieces by Berg and Kurtág. The unsurpassed master of counterpoint - the language of the Baroque - Bach wrote his Art of Fugue as a definitive exploration of the fugue form. Three Bach concertos are played by ‘scorchingly good' (The Times) young Russian violinist Alina Ibragimova. Kurtág acknowledges his debt to Bach in his Signs, Games and Messages, which includes ‘Hommage à J.S.B.', an exploration of a Bach-like melodic line.
