In the afternoon Bachs instrumental works come to the fore, played by the Dutch String Collective, led by Marieke de Bruijn. You will hear the 5th Brandenburg concert, the violin concerto in a minor, and the 2nd orchestral suite in b minor. With Ursula Dütschler (harpsichord) and Raymond Honing (flute).
