John Butt, Conductor and Keyboard

John Butt is Gardiner Professor of Music at the University of Glasgow, musical director of Dunedin Consort and a Principal Artist with the OAE. His career began with his appointment as organ scholar at King’s College Cambridge, and this led to various academic and performing posts (including University Organist at the University of California, Berkeley, 1989-97). His work, as both musician and scholar gravitates towards music of the 17th-18th centuries, but he is also concerned with the implications of the past in our present culture. Author of five monographs centering around Bach, the baroque and the concepts of historical performance practice, his recent work gravitates towards music and modernity, listening cultures and embodied musical experience, music and film.
