SOLO

"Julian Perkins's riveting performance of Preludes and Fugues from Book 1 of the Wohltemperirte Clavier in 2009 was a sell-out, and with good reason! If you were one of those who had to be turned away, don't miss this opportunity to hear the astonishing clavichord in the hands of a master. Book your tickets early."
- Cambridge Early Music
