Nature, childhood and lullabies weave through this concert, which puts the spotlight on Benjamin Britten to mark the 50th anniversary of his death, and showcases our Composer in Focus Caroline Shaw and Timothy Jackson too. Britten composed themes for his Simple Symphony between the ages of just nine and twelve, while A Charm of Lullabies reimagines texts by Blake and Burns, and explores the hidden dangers of the night and the anxieties of parenthood. Timothy Jackson’s Be not Afeard offers a gentle hymn of comfort, and two works by Pulitzer and Grammy Award-winning composer Caroline Shaw, whose music features throughout our season, offer a psychedelic take on fairytales and the natural world.
