Bach's Orchestral Suites.
Hannah French looks in depth at JS Bach: Four Orchestral Suites, which play something of a Cinderella role to the Brandenburg Concertos. Though they are some of Bach's most festive works, they remain an incomplete set. Never published, or even considered a collection in his lifetime. Basically they are suites of dance-pieces in French Baroque style preceded by an ouverture. This genre was extremely popular in Germany during Bach's day, and he showed far less interest in it than was usual. Telemann left us with 135 examples, Graupner 85 and Fasch a neat 100, so why did such a prolific and accomplished composer as Bach shun the genre? Hannah delves into some of the many recordings of the pieces to find out.

War! Huh! - England and the Glorious Revolution.
Henry Purcell's depiction of English battle through his operatic arias, in a concert given by La Folia Barockorchester at Nuremberg's Historical City Hall in July. Purcell lived through the overthrow of the Catholic king James II in 1689, and many of his works - such as King Arthur, Bonduca and Dido and Aeneas - employ ancient history and literature to address the theme of conflict. Soprano Anna Prohaska, alto Julia Bohme, tenor Richard Resch and bass Nikolay Borchev join the ensemble to run the gamut of emotion in war, from pride, to bravery, to despair and to the ultimate joy of victory. Presented by Simon Heighes.
