The young French-American Thomas Dunford brings the first evening of this Academy at the Concertgebouw to a close with what is perhaps the most intimate of baroque instruments: the lute. Bach himself only wrote a few works for it, but that does not prevent Dunford from adapting Bach and combining an original by the master with his own arrangements. In this recital you will hear two suites and an arrangement of the Ciaccona from the Second Violin Partita, which although monumental is almost unplayable on the violin.
