BACH RECONSTRUCTED

with Alexander Weimann, guest leader and harpsichord, Washington McClain, oboe, and Chloe Meyers, violin

JS Bach was a master of recycling, often rearranging music for new combinations of instruments. Over time, many of the originals have been lost and only the arrangements survive. PBO turns back the time machine to play reconstructions of Bach's music, making our best guess at how his original instrumentations might have sounded. Please join us to hear old favourites with a new focus. Our great friends Washington McClain (oboe) and Chloe Meyers (violin) return with Alexander Weimann directing from the keyboard.
