Programme Note

In the first half of this concert, a narrative follows the tragic tale of a pair of ill fated young lovers. We hear of the sea’s full capacity for disaster in Canticum Calamitatis as well as its beauty and as an allegory for redemption and renewal in Wade in the Water and Never Weather-Beaten Sail.
