Overview

Australian-born Percy Grainger was among the most original and free-thinking of twentieth-century composers, a multi-talented musician with outstanding gifts as creator, performer, writer and ethnographer.

Claire Booth’s programme sets his evocative works in the context of the song cycle Haugtussa by his friend Edvard Grieg and a group of exquisite Lieder by Schubert.
