Tim Parker-Langston and Ewan Gilford present a special recital of music for tenor and piano at the International Anthony Burgess Foundation.
"I was slooshying more like malenky romantic songs, what they call Lieder, just a goloss and a piano, very quiet and like yearny, different from when it had been all bolshy orchestras and lying on the bed between the violins and the trombones and kettledrums." — Anthony Burgess, A Clockwork Orange
The recital includes rare performances of Burgess's own settings of verse by Shakespeare and Gabriele D'Annunzio, and the world premieres of two works: 'E Chi ci pensa?' and 'Vecchio Paese'.
Broadcasting from the International Anthony Burgess Foundation and premiering at 7pm GMT on 21 April 2021.
