Live, Video: Kritiken zu klassischen Konzerten, Opern, Ballett und Tanz finden | SJE Arts at St John the Evangelist Church

The final day of Oxford Lieder's 80-event festival was framed by two recitals taking us from the world of German folklore andDes Knaben Wunderhorn, to the pain and drama of romantic entanglements. 

Here was singing and playing to live long in the memory.

The theme of tonight’s concert, revealed the programme notes, was that of “marking time and preserving timeless values” – Christmas being a season that connects the past with the present.
