About this event
Chris Green’s Switched-on Playford was inspired by Wendy Carlos’ seminal 1968 recording Switched-on Bach. It reimagines and revoices 17th and 18th century English country dances using a blend of electronic, modern and early instruments to create music that is vibrant and new but also deeply rooted in and respectful of its source.
Please note: seating is limited and will only be available to those with pre-booked tickets. Standing room will be available within the safe capacity level for the space.
