Seeds of Love - British Folksongs
Saturday 18th June, The University Church of St Mary the Virgin, Oxford
We hope you'll be able to join us for our next concert on Saturday 18th June
Twentieth and twenty-first century British composers delight in exploring their rich folk heritage. A concert celebrating them cannot ignore Vaughan Williams’ contributions, nor Britten’s highly imaginative Flower Songs. Holst’s choral folksong arrangements are an under-recognised gem, and MacMillan’s The Gallant Weaver represents the Scottish composer at his most sumptuous.
