If you were listening to Petroc Trelawny at 6.30 this morning you'll have heard this lovely piece, Elena Kats-Chernin's Reinvention after J.S. Bach No. 1. It was new to me, and if it's unfamiliar to you too, I hope you'll enjoy it as I did.
In this interview the composer talks about her use of Bach's original material as a starting point, becoming "more like a perfume or memory throughout the music rather than a set of rules or boundaries".
As I dont work when schools are on half term I was not up early so missed this delight, so thank you. Instead, still in bed, reading!

That is delightful, thank you for the link. I was, unusually, asleep at that time today.
