Tenor Nick Pritchard and pianist Ian Tindale at the Edinburgh International Festival
Tenor Nick Pritchard and pianist Ian Tindale perform works by Benjamin Britten at the Queen’s Hall.
From the Queen’s Hall, music for tenor and piano by Benjamin Britten, performed by tenor Nick Pritchard with pianist Ian Tindale.
Britten described Winter Words, his 1953 settings of Thomas Hardy poetry, as a set of ‘lyrics and ballads’ and they variously describe an autumnal November evening, a young boy’s train journey, a creaking old table and the burial of a Choirmaster. His settings of French folksongs were arranged a decade earlier and these are performed alongside some of Britten’s most well known and loved arrangements of British folksongs.
