Madeleine Easton’s accompaniment on violin was so incredibly thoughtful, well-sustained and delicate that it was hard not to mistake it for Lawergren’s crystalline voice. It was the highlight of the afternoon.
BACH AKADEMIE AUSTRALIA is not only a highly polished ensemble directed with care and authority by Easton they also are setting standards for informed performance practice.
The Bach Akademie led by Madeleine Easton, presented a most considered, thoughtful and structured concert full of exquisite, multi layered music delighting the senses.
If Bach was a bridegroom offering us joy and hope then Bach Akademie Australia could be said to open up a perfectly prepared hall in which his music is brought passionately to life.
