WILL BURTON PLAYS BACH

Will brings Bach to the baritone saxophone, performing a selection of his favourite solo works originally written for cello, violin and flute.

Fresh from completing a First Class Honours degree in Classical Saxophone at the Elder Conservatorium, Will has spent the past year exploring Bach alongside his own writing and playing.

The first half of the concert is dedicated to Bach, before moving into Will’s original compositions. Together, the program explores the connection between the music that has inspired him and the music he is creating himself.
