About the Performance
JS Bach's cantatas lie at the heart of his musical output; a huge body of vocal and instrumental music composed to enhance and enrich religious ceremonies and social occasions.
Matthew Halls directs from the keyboard in a concert featuring Carolyn Sampson, described by Gramophone Magazine as 'now the best British early music soprano by quite some distance'.
