BACH DANSANT
Ballet to Bach’s Orchestral Suites BWV 1066-1069
Bach’s Orchestral Suites BWV 1066-1069 are composed primarily from contemporary French dance repertoire that was widespread throughout Europe and settled North America in the 18th century. It was therefore a cosmopolitan means of expression, established in ballroom culture as well as on the stage of theatres and in the performance of concert music. Our intention is to present the audience with a close fusion of Bach’s music and dance expression that stems from a knowledge of contemporary creative practices, but in its visuality also absorbs the contemporary spirit and pulse of our time. Energy and vitality, sometimes feelings of loneliness and contemplation, as well as exciting joy.
Epochal Dances

The globally unique structure of the carriage wooden theatre was built according to the building techniques of the High Baroque. Now in its 11th year, we present opera and ballet performances in authentic interpretation on its stage.

Come and hear some of the best youth bands in South East London
Bromley Youth Concert Band is one of the finest youth brass bands in South East London, part of the Bromley Youth Music Trust. It is made up of around 50 students aged 14 to 18 from many different schools across the region who have to pass a rigorous audition to become members of this band. The students have regular rehearsals throughout the year and perform in three concerts in and around London, touring abroad each year. They have recently visited Portugal, Germany, Italy, Spain, Belgium and the Netherlands, where they performed at the prestigious Kerkrade Brass Band Festival. This year they will visit the Czech Republic on their tour.
The band’s repertoire includes a wide range of musical styles, including traditional brass music and well-known contemporary pieces. Some of the band members will go on to study music at universities or music conservatories and become professional musicians.
The Bromley Youth Chamber Orchestra was formed in 1977 and is also part of the Bromley Youth Music Trust’s music education centre in London. It is made up of approximately 35 talented young string players. The orchestra prides itself on being able to tackle all the major historical works and also enjoys exploring new repertoire. Players are attracted not only by their love of music, but also by the thriving social atmosphere of the chamber orchestra and education center. Like the wind band, the chamber orchestra embarks on an annual summer tour abroad. Musicians continue to work on their development by playing in the Youth Symphony Orchestra and often in chamber groups.
A selection of the following pieces will be performed:
Scottish Dances – Malcolm Arnold, ar. Paynter
Evening Hymn and Sunset – traditional song, ar. Wiffin
Aquarium – Johan De Meij
Slavonic Dance No. 8 – Antonín Dvořák, ar. Longfield
Polka from opera The Bartered Bride – Bedřich Smetana, ar. Parks
