Yesterday, June 26, the
4th Tim Williams Award - When You Hear My Voice took place and a song with lyrics by Emily Brontë was included. Regrettably we have been unable to find which poem was chosen or who the composer was. Last year, the composer Rachel Lyske put music to Charlotte Brontë's
Presentiment.
Sunday, June 26 · 6:00pm - 9:00pm
Location: Cochrane Theatre
Southampton Row
City of London, United Kingdom
Created By LSW - London Shakespeare Workout, Christine Donald, Ludovico Lucchesi Palli
An evening where 21 vibrant British composers present the debut of 24 original songs with lyrics drawn from classical/established texts not originally intended to be sung.
Lyrics range from the pens of William Shakespeare, Charles Dickens and Christina Rossetti to William Blake, Sir Noel Coward, Emily Brontë and Aleksandr Pushkin; from Tennessee Williams to an original composition created in and around a written fragment left by Anne Boleyn.
This programme is being recorded for a 'Musical Talk' podcast.
