Bach & Beyond: Bach and Mendelssohn

Presented by the Vancouver Symphony Orchestra as part of the Bach & Beyond Series at the Chan Centre

Dale Barltrop leader/violin

VSO Concertmaster Dale Barltrop conducts and performs in this exceptional concert. Bach and Mendelssohn will be forever linked; Mendelssohn rediscovered and brought to light Bach’s extraordinary music, and the world is better for his efforts.
