Novel twist

Rachel Podger will be both soloist and director for the London premiere of Chad Kelly’s new arrangement of Bach’s Goldberg Variations for chamber orchestra. The new instrumentation was inspired by the many ways Bach’s Musical Offering has been reimagined. Brecon Baroque presents the work on Dec. 3 at the London Chamber Music Society. https://www.londonchambermusic.org.uk/concert/brecon-baroque-and-rachel-podger-violin-director/
