About this event

Bennett鈥檚 Third Symphony is, unlike his earlier more extrovert works, mostly thoughtful and lyrical in nature. His dramatic cantata Spells sets a sequence of haunting invocations by Kathleen Raine whilst Anniversaries celebrates the 60th birthdays of both the 大象传媒 and composer Irwin Bazelon. The 1972 film Lady Caroline Lamb was responsible for one of Bennett鈥檚 loveliest scores.
