Café Zimmermann was a famous coffee-house in Leipzig where Bach’s weekly Collegium Musicum concerts took place. This Coffee Concert features the great triumvirate of Bach, Handel and Telemann. Bach’s D major Harpsichord Concerto is a re-working of the famous E major Violin Concerto, given Bach’s super-human workload it is not surprising that he borrowed extensively from himself when composing new works for weekly concerts and services. Anna Devin joins Ensemble Diderot for Handel’s cantata Armida abbandonata.

Admission: €20/15/10
