Written over a period of more than 25 years, Benjamin Britten’s Canticles are based on a wide range of literary sources that held deep spiritual and religious meaning for the composer. Tenor Allan Clayton, pianist Julius Drake, and actor Dame Harriet Walter are joined by an extraordinary ensemble of musicians for this unusual Lied und Lyrik program to present all five works—in words and music—in a single evening.
