En vivo, Video: Buscador de críticas de conciertos de música clásica, ópera, ballet y danza | Britten Studio

A  midsummer night but no moonshine for this madness in the Britten Studio.

Julius Drake, Krzysztof Chorzelski and Mark Padmore contributed their notable gifts of piano, viola and voice respectively in a very special, often heartfelt fundraising evening for two music education charities. 

Two short works by Harrison Birtwistle put forward interesting views of classical themes: the psychologically involved The Corridor and a dynamic new vision of Medea, The Cure.
