Today’s lunchtime concert is another of our Young Artist showcase recitals, which includes Berlioz’s Les Nuits d’été. In the afternoon, we move to the Weston Library for a discussion of the Shahnameh, the 10th-century Persian epic poem that is the inspiration for Emily Hazrati’s new work (premiered on 23 Oct). Our second ‘Song Sofa’ is with Roderick Williams, before an evening with the great Swedish soprano Camilla Tilling, who perfoms Mahler and a selection of Swedish songs with her long-standing duo partner Paul Rivinius.
