Peter recently directed a performance of 'Jesu, meine Freude' to mark the 200th anniversary of the first performance in Britain of a choral piece by Bach. That performance took place in London's Hanover Square Rooms on June 3rd, 1809, when 'Jesu, meine Freude' (in a Latin translation) was conducted by Samuel Wesley. This anniversary concert took place in St. Bartholomew-the-Great, as part of the London Bach Festival's
'Bachfest 09'.
Wroclaw Philharmonic Choir:
In November 2009 Peter conducted the
Woclaw Philharmonic Choir in an all-British programme of choral works by Henry Purcell and the contemporary Scottish composer James MacMillan.
