RIDERS TO THE SEA

Vaughan Williams’ and John Synge’s sung play about family, duty and loss in a sea-faring community, in a new chamber orchestration by Michael Betteridge.

This masterful miniature is partnered with a specially commissioned choral prelude, The Last Bit of the Moon, bringing hope, light and the modern world to a classic. Combining projection, recorded sound and live performance, this is powerfully direct musical storytelling at its most visceral.
