Bach Restor’d

Regretfully the performances of this programme, scheduled for 21-22 September, have had to be cancelled due to unavoidable circumstances.  This Bach Restor’d programme featured our own reconstruction of two of Bach’s large-scale masterworks, the French Overture BWV831 and the Italian Concerto BWV971. This cancellation is particularly unfortunate because the performances have had to be cancelled twice before, on both occasions through Covid issues. 

However, Restoration’s recording of JS Bach’s magnificent French Overture in C minor, BWV 831 has now been released on the Rattle Records label.  Click here for the link to the album on the Rattle website, including purchase information.  More details about the performers and the background research into this possible origin of Bach’s masterpiece are on our Releases page www.restorationensemble.co.nz/releases.
