Cumbrian superstar contralto Jess Dandy joins forces with the exquisite Alkyona Quartet for a celebration of the Sun; its rise, its warmth, and its vivid colours.
At the centre, Respighi’s beautifully tragic and haunting adaptation of Shelley’s poem The Sunset, brings an operatic drama to an intimate chamber setting.
Works by Purcell, Beethoven, Chance and Mendelssohn will also combine in this celebration of the Sun at the Sunrise to Sunset concert
