Dunedin Consort, Mikhail Pletnev and Julia Bullock
A taste of the final week of the Edinburgh Festival, featuring the Dunedin Consort, pianist Mikhail Pletnev and soprano Julia Bullock performing JS Bach, Chopin and Nina Simone.
Enjoy a taste of the final week at the Edinburgh International Festival with recitals from the Queen's Hall and Usher Hall.
The Dunedin Consort, with their director and harpsichordist, John Butt, perform Bach's fourth Orchestral Suite which opens with an imposing overture followed by a series of French dances, ending with the festive Réjouissance. We return to the Usher Hall for more from Mikhail Pletnev's all-Chopin recital with three Nocturnes written between 1830 to 1836 and we end our week of Lunchtime Concerts from the Edinburgh International Festival with American soprano, Julia Bullock and pianist Bretton Brown, reimagining the inspirational songs of Nina Simone.
