Presented by Petroc Trelawny One of the towering landmarks of Western music, Bach's B minor mass may not have been originally conceived as a complete work, yet it is extraordinarily coherent in its architectural grandeur and complexity and in its outpouring of emotion, something which has arguably never been matched in any subsequent mass setting. In this concert from the Aldeburgh Festival, Sir John Eliot Gardiner brings his considerable depth of knowledge of Bach's music to this magnificent work.
