The Sixteen return to Kings Place to present a series of three concerts celebrating Bach’s motets and Lutheran masses and exploring his own plagiarism within these works. The combination of this rarely performed repertoire, and the fact that The Sixteen have not performed such a wealth of Bach’s music in a number of years, makes this a uniquely exciting project which is not to be missed.

The Russian Virtuosi of Europe, led by Yuri Zhislin, comprises some of the very best Russian string players in London. Here they perform a programme featuring concertos by J.S. Bach and Vivaldi, string music by Kreisler and Shostakovich, a Mozart divertimento, and the sextet by the celebrated Czech composer, Erwin Schulhoff, composed in 1924.

Emulsion, a collision and fusion of Contemporary Classical and Jazz music, presented, composed and conceived by Ensemble Amorpha, Tangent, Food and Fringe Magnetic. This second Emulsion places the focus firmly on existing contemporary works, which have influenced the approach to improvisation and composition in the new works. Emulsion presents a new experience and different way to listen to music with classical and jazz roots, showing how improvisation and contemporary music can exist in the same space and/or interact with each other.
