Bach comes to Fulneck !
Bach comes to Fulneck on this August Bank Holiday Monday with a fabulously varied programme of Cantatas, concertos and motets, all by the great man!
Bank Holiday Monday 26 August 2019 4.00pm
Fulneck Moravian Church LS28 8NT
Admission is free
What better way to spend a Bank Holiday than to immerse yourself in the beautiful music of the great J S Bach ?
Set in the peace and rural tranquility of the Fulneck Moravian Church near Pudsey, this programme explores a stunning kaleidoscope of moods and emotions, such as perhaps only JS Bach can offer. Come and hear music that is by turn joyful and mournful, reflective and yearning, worldly and spiritual, peaceful and raging with apocalyptic power!
