“Bach is the beginning and end of all music”, it is said. Two of the most beloved works by Bach, recognisable in all their joy and richness, open and close this first day of SSO’s Baroque Festival. Intimate trio sonatas by Italian and English contemporaries Corelli and Handel join in thoughtful company. Come with us back to the time of the Baroque masters, whose influence on music will never fade. 

Dedicated to the late Dr Goh Keng Swee, founding patron of the SSO.
