SLAC, Boho Strings Antwerp o.l.v. David Ramael, Tony Nys

Lachrymae (Tears) is a rarely played but beautifully intimate master-piece by Benjamin Britten, full of colour and mystery. As he often did, Britten took inspiration from music by predecessors from long ago, in this case John Dowland (1563-1626). 

To make the listening experience as intense as possible, the original Dowland songs will be draped around Britten’s work, as it were. The performers are students of the SLAC and the professionals from Boho Strings Antwerp. If you want to prepare yourself even more for this concert, please come to the satellite concert on 15 October.
