Lunch with Telemann
Directed by Lisa Beznosiuk
Baroque Soloists from RAM present selections from Telemann’s huge compendium of “Musique de Table” or “Tafelmusik”. The prolific composer and multi-instrumentalist wisely tapped into the burgeoning appetite for amateur music-making and public concerts in the early 18th century by writing a huge amount of ensemble music for almost any combination of instruments.

- The Grand Tour II
A programme exploring the musical identities of the various cities of the Grand Tour by students of the Royal Academy of Music Baroque Ensemble under the musical direction of Margaret Faultless. This particular journey from a Grand Tour - a highly popular experience visiting major European cities undertaken by aristocracy - travels from 14th-century Paris to 18th-century Leipzig, exploring music with and without texts, music for the court, the church and the salon; music for dancing, acting, prayer and contemplation.

John Blow - Venus & Adonis
The Historical Performance and Vocal Departments of the Royal Academy collaborate in a semi-staged performance of a masterpiece of the 17th century, directed by Margaret Faultless, Elizabeth Kenny, Michael Chance and Mary Collins (dance). John Blow’s masque Venus and Adonis rivals Purcell’s Dido and Aeneas in its exquisite treatment of character and drama, and Ovid’s story of transformation is brilliantly set to music.

Bach and the Extended Family
Directed by Philippe Herreweghe
As well as nurturing the younger generation of Bachs, Johann Sebastian was a committed advocate of the finest music by older members of his extended family. This concert places two of his cantatas in the context of masterpieces by his first cousin once removed, Johann Christoph Bach – described as the ‘profound composer’ in Bach’s obituary – whose works are arguably the most distinguished in Sebastian’s collection of family music, known as the Altbachisches Archiv.

Bach and the Dramatic Impulse
Directed by Trevor Pinnock
Known within Bach’s circle during his lifetime as ‘the Great Passion’, the St Matthew Passion has been universally recognised as the pinnacle of Protestant devotional music since its rediscovery in the 1820s. The first performance of the work in England was in 1854 directed by William Sterndale Bennett, who later became Principal of the Academy.
