Enjoy this single-take performance by cello virtuoso Adrian Bradbury, from Clare Hall, University of Cambridge.
This was originally intended to be broadcast via livestream on Saturday evening, but due to internet failure it is instead now presented as an unedited, live performance.
During the concert, Adrian Bradbury explores music from the opposite ends of Bach's treasure trove of music for solo cello - a genre that he virtually invented. The sixth and final Suite presents some of Bach's most ebullient, invigorating, infectious music. It was composed for a cello with an extra string (though Adrian plays it on the normal 4-string instrument, a technical feat in itself). Its six movements are interleaved with two short Bach-inspired 'Songs' by Philip Glass, reflecting a thoughtful and little-heard side of that composer. Pianissimo is a beautiful and enchanting work by Latvian composer Peteris Vasks which provides a perfect interlude before Adrian ends with Bach's familiar and much-loved First Suite - music to heal the heart.
