Marian PooleWe are proud to be able to have re-emerged with new awareness of our mortal fragility. Richard Strauss composed Metamorphosen to encapsulate the mixed emotions engendered by the end of World War 2, a period of global disaster potentially parallel to 2020. The whole speaks highly effectively to the mixed emotions that cataclysmic events inspire. Strauss’ Four Last Songs received an equally impressive performance by soprano Emma Pearson. A glorious evening of excellent performances by all.
