RENEWAL: The Lark Ascending @ Chiltern Arts Festival

  • Wycombe Swan Theatre Saint Mary Street High Wycombe, England, HP11 2XE United Kingdom (map)

A stunning hour-long programme combining the innovative United Strings of Europe with a quartet of juggler-acrobats. At the heart of the programme is Vaughan Williams’ much-loved The Lark Ascending, played here in a rarely-heard chamber music arrangement. Osvaldo Golijov’s Tenebrae sets the scene for our journey before we hear music from two of today’s leading female composers: Caroline Shaw’s Entr’acte and a work commissioned by the United Strings of Europe, Joanna Marsh’s Another Eden. Combining live music, movement, juggling and stagecraft, this brand new show explores our relationship with nature, developing themes of personal growth and solidarity through the beauty of movement and collaborative arts.
