Mark Padmore, Roderick Williams & Julius Drake: Seven AgesPresented by Saffron Hall
Five outstanding artists join forces for an afternoon of poetry and music charting the highs and lows of The Seven Ages of Man.
Rory Kinnear and Pandora Colin are extraordinary actors who bring their voices to poetry by writers such as Shakespeare, Donne, Dickinson, Carol Ann Duffy and A.A. Milne. Music from Brahms to Britten is interpreted by three greats: tenor Mark Padmore, baritone Roderick Williams and pianist Julius Drake.
