Celebrated for the remarkable passion, drama, and directness of his elegant performances, British tenor Ian Bostridge is widely admired as one of the world’s most perceptive and accomplished musicians. A supremely expressive storyteller of song, Bostridge is joined by the eminent pianist Wenwen Du to present an artfully curated program of songs exploring the music and poetry of the Great War. The program ranges from songs by soldier composer George Butterworth to Britten’s setting of poems about children in wartime.
