Commissioned especially for pianist Stephen De Pledge, seven New Zealand composers have written pieces inspired by Bach’s Partita no.3 in A minor. In a series of fascinating three-way conversations between the composers, pianist and Bach himself – the performance includes Bach’s original partita – we hear this 18th century musical form reimagined for the 21st century, with wit and lively imagination.
