Presented in partnership with the Humanities Cultural Programme (University of Oxford)

To conclude today’s events, we turn to the Quiet Songs of the leading Ukrainian composer Valentin Silvestrov. This monumental cycle, nearly two hours long in its entirety, is a modern masterpiece. Tonight we will hear extracts from the cycle, with a 15-minute introduction given by Philip Ross Bullock.
