In 1765, Johann Christian Bach, who had settled in London, established with his friend Carl Friedrich Abel the prestigious "Bach Abel Concertos". Surrounded by some of the most talented artists of their generation, Margaux Blanchard and Sylvian Sartre invite us to rediscover the muisc that enlivened the luxrious London salons of the late 18th century. A chance to be admitted for a moment's listening, into the very select Bach-Abel Society.
