Martin Roscoe piano
We welcome distinguished pianist, Martin Roscoe, to the Temple in his 70th birthday year. The late-night atmosphere of Temple Church is a magical way to close the day, all the more so with this candle-lit performance of Bach's exquisite Goldberg Variations. Written - according to legend - to soothe Count Kyserlingk, who was unable to sleep, this mellifluous music has worked its healing effect on generations of troubled souls since.

"Roscoe at his most dazzling, employing a huge dynamic range and changes of mood as swift as they are convincing … It would be difficult to overpraise Roscoe’s accomplishment"
