Welcome to the first Cheltenham Bach Weekend.

Bach's music has been an inspiration to generations of music-lovers, and in devising this programme of events, we have tried to present some of Bach's less well-known works, and to set his music in context.

There is something here for everyone - a mix of familiar and unfamiliar, together with events for all ages. We look forward to seeing you over the Bach weekend in June.
