A beautiful mind: Kati Debretzeni and The Monteverdi Choir conclude their exploration of Bach’s motets and his music for unaccompanied violin.

Violinist Kati Debretzeni, the English Baroque Soloists and the Monteverdi Choir conclude their voyage through the Motets of Johann Sebastian Bach, interwoven with the sublime simplicity of his Sonatas for unaccompanied violin. It’s music that could have been written for the setting of St Martin-in-the-Fields, and it’s hard to imagine performers who are better equipped to explore both its seriousness and its joy. For over five decades, these celebrated ensembles have put the music of Bach at the centre of their shared artistic life. There are few more distinguished living performers of this repertoire, in all its warmth, its sorrow and its profoundly consoling beauty.
