Weekly sessions over 3 weeks exploring the music of J.S Bach - through text, video, recordings and personal stories and memories.

“St Matthews Passion wraps around me like a warm blanket.

It makes me cry. Memories come flooding back of my youth. All the musical things I did with my husband and friends in Melbourne, Sydney and London. It’s part of me. The sounds, the harmonies, the melodies, are part of my being.

Ive played this music for so long. Im very familiar with it.

It’s part of my emotional life."
