Presented by Penny Gore

We've two different looks at J.S. Bach - music by him and his sons on period instruments, as well as the second part of a big band arrangement of his Goldberg Variations. Max Bruch's Concerto for two pianos, with its achingly beautiful slow movement, is also on the bill of fayre as well as the suite from Richard Strauss's opera Der Rosenkavalier.
