2017: Chamber Music and Song
Announced 9 May 2018
Schumann Street (Spitalfields Music)
"Spitalfields Music’s Schumann Street was a quirky and creative song-crawl through the historic Huguenot houses of Spitalfields. The audience discovered, at random, vocalists from many musical traditions and genres, each re-imagining one song from Schumann’s Dichterliebe. Together they reminded us of the enduring themes and relevance of that work, and demonstrated the visceral power of storytelling through the medium of song."
