Mahan Esfahani

This is a past event which has now ended.

Mahan Esfahani harpsichord

Bach Toccata in E minor BWV 914
Bach Partita V in G major BWV 829
Bach Goldberg Variations

Renegade and rebel, harpsichordist Mahan Esfahani gives new character to an old instrument that is all too often viewed as archaic and twee. Acclaimed for his performances of the music of Bach, Mahan will take audiences on an arresting journey through Bach’s epic Goldberg Variations, giving fresh and meaningful voice to this well-travelled score.

Giving context to Bach’s remarkable Goldberg Variations are two of the composer’s earlier works: Toccata in E minor, a lesser-heard piece from his earliest period, and Partita V in G major, a light, buoyant work which will be all the more joyous in the hands of Mahan Esfahani.

Arts make life better

Norfolk & Norwich Festival brings tens of thousands of people together in celebration – it has been doing this for 250 years. Through our May Festival and our year-round arts education work, focusing on children and young people, we lead and support celebration, creativity and curiosity in communities across Norfolk and the region.

This year we begin an exciting new initiative, Festival Connect & Create that will bring creative opportunities to those schools and communities with least provision. Creativity transforms people’s lives. It builds cohesive communities, develops vital skills and supports health and wellbeing. We want more people to have access to creative opportunities.

Please consider donating to support and develop this work. With your help we can increase access to the life changing power of the arts.
