During the summer (end of July till the beginning of September) special editions of our weekday programme about the oeuvre of Johann Sebastian Bach with producer Govert Jan Bach and host Joop van Zijl.
Summer episode 02.
Summer has arrived. The team of Bach Ad Infinitum is also heading out, exploring new trails, incubating new ideas. With their feet in a cool stream, but Bach will never be far away.
