Prepare to be amazed by the astounding musical athleticism required to perform Bach’s most famous orchestral pieces. In 1721 Bach sent six concertos as a gift to Christian, Margrave of Brandenburg-Schwedt (hence the title) – as far as we know, he just put them on a shelf and no-one heard any more about them until they turned up in the library of a Princess over a century later!
Our Community Open Rehearsals are open to everyone. They take place at Acland Burghley School in Tufnell Park, where the OAE is based – the nearest tube station is Tufnell Park on the Northern Line (usually less than 10 minutes from Euston or King’s Cross). We’d like anyone to feel able and comfortable to attend these events. We’re always happy to answer any questions you have – please email us if we can help.
It’s free to attend – but please register so we know how much cake to buy!
