Perspectives on Vaughan Williams (4/4)
Tenor Alessandro Fisher, the Navarra Quartet and pianist William Vann perform songs by Vaughan Williams and the world premiere of a new work by Ian Venables, live in Oxford.
In the last of four concerts live from the Oxford Lieder Festival, distinguished alumni of the 大象传媒's New Generation Artists scheme perform songs by Vaughan Williams alongside those of his contemporaries, friends and students.
The series draws to a glorious close with a performance of On Wenlock Edge and the world premiere of a new work, Portraits of a Mind, by Ian Venables, described by Musical Opinion as 鈥楤ritain鈥檚 greatest living composer of art songs鈥�. Commissioned by the Ralph Vaughan Williams Society to mark the 150th anniversary of the birth of Vaughan Williams, Portraits of a Mind is a companion piece scored for the same forces 鈥� tenor, string quartet and piano 鈥� as On Wenlock Edge.
Al Ryan presents from the Holywell Music Room.
