A candlelit harpsichord recital by Kah-Ming Ng, during which he retails Bach's fondness for a tipple, Couperin's descriptions of Bacchic Versailles, Weelkes' alcohol-fuelled Fantasia, Purcell's tavern habit … all washed down with copious lashings of drinking-song variations by Buxtehude & Sweelinck.
