Words into Music: Poets, Composers & Songs

In association with the Literature and Music Research Group, The Open University; the Faculties of Modern Languages and of Music, Oxford University; and Wadham College Oxford. 

To introduce the theme of this year’s Festival, we are delighted to welcome an array of renowned scholars and speakers for a one-day symposium exploring the relationship between words and music. The day will comprise eight 20-minute papers around a lunchtime concert. The tone of the day will be scholarly but very much accessible, and all are warmly invited.
