About this Event
Schubert's marvellous, full-hearted fantasy is one of the few works of his last years without any tragic edge whatever; it seems like two children playing innocently (and sometimes robustly!) in a beautiful garden. In the same playful spirit, our composer-in-residence Thomas Adès spins magical textures around four old English folktunes, and our festival ends with Beethoven Septet.
