THE NIGHT SHIFT

Monday 3 June 8.00pm
£15.00 (£5.00 full time students)

The Orchestra of the Age of Enlightenment present
The Night Shift led by Margaret Faultless

Bach and his fellow 18th century composers were nothing if not practical musicians, often re-inventing their own material for changing performance situations. In this same spirit, violinist Margaret Faultless has arranged Bach’s so-called ‘orchestral suites’ for string quartet – enabling both players and audience to enjoy this incredible music in more intimate settings.

Presented cabaret style here at the NCEM, these informal concerts join together the Orchestral Suite No 1 (BWV 1066) along with the Adagio from Organ Suite No 3 and a few surprises – a chocolate box selection of Bach!

The Night Shift is OAE’s series of informal chamber music gigs – a chance to music they are passionate about. So come along, grab a drink with friends (or meet some new ones) and enjoy the music.

It was all presented with style, aplomb and not a little fun and theatricality.” Planet Hugill

Please note there is a £1.50 administration fee per transaction.
