HIGGINS Speak of the North (35’)

In two beautiful churches on the Chatsworth Estate, violinist Tamsin Waley Cohen, praised for her “undeniably fabulous playing” (Classical Source), joins soprano Claire Booth and GRAMMY- winning pianist Christopher Glynn to perform music by Grieg and Grainger, and a Music in the Round co-commission, ‘Speak of the North’.

Described as "a vast and sprawling journey across the moors, mountains, cities and coasts of the north of England” (The Guardian), this new work by Gavin Higgins features poems by northern writers, such as Tony Williams and the Brontë sisters, interwoven with folk violin in a collection of musical pictures brought to life through song, including the work ‘Sycamore Gap’.

This is music that sings of the Northern landscape in all its breath-taking glory.

“Thinking of the north gives me a feeling of rootedness. It grounds me and reminds me of who I am and, in returning to the north for this song cycle, I feel like I’ve come home.” Gavin Higgins
