Evening Concert Series: Bach Violin Concertos by Candlelight - The Piccadilly Sinfonietta

This enchanting programme celebrates the genius of Johann Sebastian Bach, with a hand-picked selection of his most beloved orchestral and concerto works. From the uplifting grace of the Brandenburg Concerto No. 3 to the soulful Air on the G String, and the vibrant energy of his Violin Concertos in A major and E major, the evening offers a captivating journey through the elegance, complexity, and enduring beauty of Bach’s music. The concert also features Handel’s jubilant Arrival of the Queen of Sheba, a sparkling overture that perfectly sets the tone for a night of refinement and virtuosity.

Performed by the celebrated Piccadilly Sinfonietta, joined by leading violinist Ben Norris, this acclaimed ensemble—under the artistic direction of pianist Warren Mailley-Smith—brings together some of the UK’s finest musicians in interpretations known for their passion and precision. With over 200 performances annually, they have become a shining presence on the British classical music scene.
