The Power of Three

Welcome back to this ‘vivacious group’ (Observer) performing the music of Bach, Handel and Telemann. The three composers knew and admired each other’s work. Bach and Telemann were friends but, perhaps surprisingly, Bach and Handel never met. The Power of Three features their trio sonatas, offering a world of different styles from different musical influences, with the harpsichord here providing the bass line.

Handel – Sinfonia in B flat major, HWV339

J S Bach – Trio Sonata in C minor, BWV526

Telemann – Trio Sonata in E flat major from Tafelmusik, TWV 42:Es1
