Telling Tales: Contemporary Works for Solo Recorder

Icarus finding his wings (and his hubris!), the horns of Tennyson’s Elfland echoing through the valley, the mythical breath of the lion-headed goddess Sakhmet… these stories and more await in Telling Tales, a concert of contemporary works for solo recorder presented by Imogen Morris. Whether depicting colourful characters, dwelling in a single salient moment, or simply recounting a story in its entirety, the pieces featured in the programme explore tales that have been told for generations.

The concert includes works by Isang Yun, Liza Lim, Markus Zahnhausen and many more, as well as the premiere of Euryale’s Lament on the Death of Medusa by New Zealand’s own Janet Jennings.
