Listening Party: Errollyn Wallen on Bach in the 21st Century

Thursday 16 December 2021

Co-artistic Director of Clod Ensemble Paul Clark in conversation with Errollyn Wallen, CBE

 

Why have musicians working in so many different genres been so deeply drawn to the music of JS Bach – someone who died 270 years ago?

Celebrated composer Errollyn Wallen shares some of her favourite pieces and discusses them with Clod Ensemble’s Co-Artistic Director Paul Clark – unlocking some of the secrets of this enduringly popular music, demystifying the concept of counterpoint and exploring how it relates to the work people have been making more recently, from modern electronica and minimalism to 70s disco.
