Peter Adams cello

It was Bach’s six suites for solo cello that alerted twentieth-century ears to the wonders of the composer’s work. This music of the most inward concentration and outward consolation has traversed cultures and genres, forming the subjects of books, films and even animations. Peter Adams, Solo Cello of the Oxford Philharmonic Orchestra and the youngest ever professor in the history of London’s Royal Academy of Music, comes to the Holywell Music Room for this traversal of the odd-numbered suites, beginning with the well-known G major Prelude.
