On Sunday 12 May, violinist Fenella Humphreys and novelist James Runcie invite audiences to join them at St Mary’s Church in Princes Risborough as they take a deep-dive into Bach’s world with a combination of music and readings, drawing from Runcie’s latest novel, The Great Passion, which explores powerful human themes of family life, grief and religion.
