Britten Sinfonia
Alina Ibragimova violin
Britten Sinfonia Voices

Acclaimed violinist Alina Ibragimova joins Britten Sinfonia in a programme journeying through 400 years of music. Demonstrating her skills at both contemporary and early repertoire, Alina performs Peteris Vasks’ Violin Concerto ‘Distant Light’ and one of only two surviving violin concertos by Bach. Britten Sinfonia’s professional choir, Britten Sinfonia Voices, interweave music from Perotin and Bach, and Eriks Esenvalds brings the themes of the programme together in a new commission for strings and voices.

. Perotin : Viderunt omnes
J.S. Bach : Violin Concerto in A minor
Eriks Esenvalds : New work (world premiere)
J.S. Bach : Komm Jesu, komm
