End the night with a truly unique concert where you’ll sit
up close to the performers on relaxed floor cushions or chairs for an intimate musical experience.
You will hear a sequence of music drawing on themes of dreams, hope and spirituality, including Beethoven at his most transcendent, and Golijov’s klezmerinspired clarinet quintet, The Dreams and Prayers of Isaac the Blind, one of the most electrifying works of the twentieth century. Folk traditions worldwide weave through the programme, including new arrangements by Kaleidoscope’s founder Tom Poster.
The relaxed communal listening space surrounding the performers will bring you closer to both the visceral power and the solace of this music. So take a breath, relax and
lose yourself in this immersive listening experience.
Osvaldo Golijov – The Dreams and Prayers of Isaac the Blind for klezmer clarinet and string quartet
