Bach, The Universe and Everything: OAE

  • Kings Place 90 York Way London, England, N1 9GU United Kingdom (map)

The OAE’s final canata of the season at Kings Place returns to the big question: what is our place in the history of the universe? Gottes Zeit ist die allerbeste Zeit seems to have been written as a funeral ode, but no-one knows who it was for. From the opening sonatina for two recorders to the closing chorus, it is a work of transcendent beauty and peace that affirms the qualities of confidence and inner calm.

Dr Sheila Kanani will discuss jobs in the space sector ranging from astronaut to space food taster and showcase some amazing space spin-off technologies that are arguably more important down on Earth than they are in space!
