Programme Note
Artist Management company Only Stage has launched its highly anticipated Digital Season – All About Bach! Festival, running January 8th – March 5th 2021. The festival kicked off with a stunning performance from world-renowned violinist Charlie Siem, who will also be closing the festival on 5th March.
The Digital Season from Only Stage is a series of free concerts where artists will perform an array of classic pieces from Bach's repertoire, using technology and social media to stream to devices world-wide. The line up includes 8 soloists over 9 concerts, taking place once a week. These concerts can be accessed via the Only Stage Facebook page, Instagram and Youtube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCmMedv3kGfZxXt-nDq1j4SQ
Due to the ongoing-pandemic, Only Stage has, like many, had to adapt the way it works with musicians and through this need for creativity, the Digital Season was born. Not only does this provide Only Stage with a new way of continuing to work with artists, it also provides the artists and their guests a platform to showcase their creativity for a new online audience, helping bring people together through the power of music.
As a recipient of the Culture Recovery Fund 2020, Only Stage would like to thank Arts Council England for allowing them to put together this project and crucially continue to support artists in the music industry.
