Foldings and Whirlings

Clouds scud and wheel across the sky in a programme that celebrates the joy of deep breaths and the full possibilities of the human voice. 

Caroline Shaw’s origami-inspired How to fold the wind and Aaron Jay Kernis’ diaphanous Ecstatic Meditations sit at the heart of the each half, framed by sixteenth-century polyphony from John Sheppard and John Taverner—music that folds back on itself over and again, inviting us to look up and marvel at its vaulted lines. 

Pre-concert talk with Ellie Slorach at 6.30pm  

Included in the Edinburgh Subscription Season
