John Butt is Gardiner Professor of Music at the University of Glasgow, Musical Director of Edinburgh’s Dunedin Consort and a Principal Artist with the Orchestra of the Age of Enlightenment. His career as both performing musician and scholar centres on music of the 17th and 18th centuries and he has written extensively on Bach. His discography includes recordings for Harmonia Mundi and Linn, a number of which have garnered international prizes.

In today’s lunchtime recital on the Phelps organ, John Butt performs J.S. Bach’s great Passacaglia in C minor, BWV 582, Sonata in D minor, BWV 527, and three preludes on Nun komm, der Heiden Heiland, BWV 659-661.
