Three of Bach's greatest Cello Suites performed live by candlelight in Covent Garden

Step into the candlelight as acclaimed cellist Wallis Power brings three of Bach's celebrated Cello Suites to the beautiful Baroque surroundings of St Paul's Covent Garden, known as The Actors' Church.

The evening begins with Cello Suite No. 1 in G major, one of the most recognisable works written for solo cello, before moving into the darker sound of Cello Suite No. 2 in D minor.

Cello Suite No. 3 in C major completes the programme, bringing more energy to an hour that puts one musician, one cello and Bach's extraordinary writing firmly centre stage.

Wallis Power performs the complete programme unaccompanied, letting you hear every detail of the cello inside an intimate candlelit setting just moments from the buzz of Covent Garden and London's West End.

Whether you already know Bach's Cello Suites note for note or you're dipping your toes into solo classical music for the first time, take your seat, settle into the candlelight and let the cello do the talking.
