  • Satisfying listen

    A passionate amateur, John provides a lovely mix of history, theory, personal views on favourite recordings and outstanding excerpts from featured compositions. His personal touch brings Bach’s works closer to the listener than a professional presenter ever could. It’s a labour of love, and you can feel it.
