Words and Music with Ruth Padel
16 November 2009
REVISED LOCATION: The Mountbatten Room at 8:30.
Christ's College Poet-in-Residence, Ruth Padel, and Music Research Fellow David Irving have organised a fascinating "Words and Music" evening which will explore (in a friendly and relaxed fashion) the complex relationship between poetry and its musical setting. We will discuss case studies ranging from Weelkes to Mozart to Schubert to Britten, using recordings to illustrate some of the points being raised. 
This is a rare opportunity to hear one of Britain's most distinguished poets talk about her personal insights into these works.
