Unheard Voices: Enescu, El-Khoury, Waxman, Delius, Akimenko, Filanovsky, Zemlinsky & Golijov – music for strings, piano & winds.

Another Music Festival brings together an extraordinary ensemble of international artists – many of them migrants – to celebrate the rich legacy of composers who have lived or continue to live in exile. From historical giants – Chopin, Hindemith, Stravinsky, Enescu, Bartók to neglected composers including Ukrainian composer Theodore Akimenko, the three-day festival offers a journey through music shaped by migration.

Importantly, the programme features works composed both before and after emigration, highlighting the continuity and evolution of the composer’s artistic voice. Highlights will include premieres of Alexey Kurbatov’s Quartet, Boris Filanovsky’s Supremus 3 and two UK premieres: Stephania Turkevych’s Sonata for Violin and Piano and Leonid Desyatnikov’s Leaden Echo.
