Add to my Calendar 17-10-2021 11:00 17-10-2021 13:00 36 Oxford Lieder Festival: Ferrier Winners Recital: An American Pilgrimage Samuel Barber’s Hermit Songs sit at the centre of this programme. Arguably his best-known cycle of songs, they are, in Barber’s own words, ‘settings of anonymous Irish texts of the eighth to thirteenth centuries written by monks and scholars, often on the margins of manuscripts they were copying or illuminating.’ Around that, Theodore Platt – a prize winner at the 2019 Kathleen Ferrier Awards – and Keval Shah weave an array of spiritually-inclined songs by Ives, Dvorák, Price and others. Enjoy the whole festival live online for £165 with a Digital Festival Pass. All events will be available on demand after broadcast until 30th November, so you can catch up at a time which suits you.
