The beauty and fragility of life and the wonder of the natural world are explored in a concert of “big-heart” music highlighted by Johannes Brahms’ lush, mini-masterpiece, “Nänie”; Latvian sensation, Ēriks Ešenvalds’ evocative “Northern Lights” for choir and tuned water glasses; Lucy Walker’s lyrical setting of Sara Teasdale’s anti-war poem, “There will come soft rains”; crossover music by Dolly Parton and Jacob Collier; and Jodi French’s poignant “Life has loveliness to sell”, which sets Sara Teasdale’s lovely poem “Barter” reminding us that beauty is all around, and exhorting all to: “Spend all you have for loveliness, buy it and never count the cost… and for a breath of ecstasy, give all you have been, or could be.”
