To kick off Season 2 we're doing things a little bit differently. We're off to some concerts! Introducing Adam to all the quirks and customs of a classical performance. In this episode we head to the Recital Centre to see The Sitkovetsky Trio where we even get a surprise chat with Sasha Sitkovetsky himself! Was Adam impressed? What did he learn? Listen in and find out.

What is a deceptive cadence? Why don’t we applaud between movements? Did we ever? What is A440? Where has the contralto gone?  Why is the twelfth root of 2 so important in music? 

Bach to Basics each week brings in a different instrumentalist into the studio to dig around in the nooks and crannies of Classical Music. Co-hosted by Sascha Kelly and Adam Branson, Bach to Basics shows that the simplest of questions don't always have the simplest of answers.
