Das Paradies und die Peri

A wounded spirit seeks redemption in Schumann’s heartfelt and wildly Romantic music.

What price heaven? The Peri has been cast out of Paradise. Now she walks the Earth, a wounded but gentle spirit, seeking the good deed or the loving heart that will guide her back to happiness. Robert Schumann was a musical dreamer with the soul of a poet, and in 1843 he retold her adventures in some of the most heartfelt music of the Romantic age. Weird, wild and utterly wonderful, it’s a labour of true love for Edward Gardner, and for this rare performance he’s gathered an all-star cast as well as the full London Philharmonic Choir. Don’t miss it.
