An Alternative History of 19th Century Opera and Song (expired event)

Description

Join us in an exploration of the ‘alternative history’ of 19th century song featuring music by Schubert, Rossini, Bellini, and much more.

What lovelier combination of instruments could there possibly be than the human voice and the intimate tones of the guitar? Correcting modern misconceptions, this concert demonstrates that piano was not the only instrument for song accompaniment, ‘art-song’ was for everyone, and opera melodies had a long ‘afterlife’ in an explosion of instrumental derivatives.

Music Directors: Jonathan Paget and Emma Matthews
