The Bach Project with James Ehnes and Michael Tilson Thomas

International violin sensation James Ehnes joins forces with Michael Tilson Thomas and the New

World Symphony Violin Fellows to share the divine solo works of Johann Sebastian Bach. When concert halls

around the world first closed during the pandemic, Ehnes leaned into J.S. Bach’s sonatas and partitas – what

he calls cornerstones of the solo violin repertoire. Through guided explorations in master classes and

individual coachings, Ehnes has shared his reflections with NWS Fellows. Together with MTT they will explore

interpretations by famous violinists from the early 1900s to today, before bringing these masterful works to

life during this special event.
