Dartington Festival Special

Sara Mohr-Pietsch with a special edition recorded live at Dartington Festival in Devon, featuring performances from cellist Matthew Barley and shakuhachi player Adrian Freedman.

Sara Mohr-Pietsch presents a special edition recorded live in the Great Hall at Dartington in South Devon, marking the 70th anniversary of the Dartington Summer School and Festival.

Featuring live performances from cellist Matthew Barley with music by Anna Meredith, John Metcalfe and Gavin Bryars, as well as improvisations with his friend and collaborator, shakuhachi player Adrian Freedman. We hear recordings by local artists such as Mae Karthauser and Anna Ling, and music by composers connected to the place and to the festival's history, including Thea Musgrave, Benjamin Britten, Delia Derbyshire and Imrat Khan. Plus there's poetry inspired by the river Dart by Alice Oswald and change ringing from the Stoke Gabriel Bellringers, based just a few miles down the river, as the clock strikes midnight.
