As help you dip your toes into a little of everything, here is a festival, of course, we have already had to embrace Stewart Collins’ suggestion for a festival in 12 events: the so-called ‘new normal’ and the 2020 festival will Thursday 15 July remain in a lot of people’s memories as something of a Jess Gillam Ensemble beacon in the midst of trying times. But here we are in 2021 so what can we look forward to? Certainly as far Friday 16 July as the Petworth Festival is concerned, the answer is ‘a The Bloomsbury Quartet – ReCentred: Elizabeth Maconchy lot!’ Happily, we have been able to forge a programme (pay as you wish event) that celebrates the finest in performance, much as Sunday 18 July we have over the last 40 years, and over the next few Genesis Sixteen (choral) pages you will hopefully be overjoyed to see some of the gems that lie in store for us this coming summer.

  • Mark Padmore
    ` BRITTEN Death in Venice, Royal Opera House, Covent Garden At the centre, there’s a tour de force performance by tenor Mark Padmore as the blocked writer Aschenbach, his voice apparently as fresh at the end of this long evening as at the beginning Erica Jeal, The Guardian, November 2019 Tenor Mark Padmore, exquisite of voice, presents Aschenbach’s physical and spiritual breakdown with extraordinary detail and insight Warwick Thompson, Metro, November 2019 Mark Padmore deals in a masterly fashion with the English words, so poetically charged by librettist Myfanwy Piper, and was in his best voice, teasing out beauty with every lyrical solo. Richard Fairman, The Financial Times, November 2019 Mark Padmore is on similarly excellent form as Aschenbach. Padmore doesn’t do much opera, but this role is perfect for him………Padmore is able to bring acute emotion to these scenes, without extravagance or lyricism, drawing the scale of the drama back down to the personal level. Mark Padmore Gavin Dixon, The Arts Desk, November 2019 Tenor ..It’s the performances of Mark Padmore and Gerald Finley that make the show unmissable. …Padmore……conveys so believably the tragic arc of Aschenbach’s disintegration, from pompous self-regard through confusion and brief ecstatic abandon to physical and moral collapse. And the diction of both singers is so clear that surtitles are superfluous. You will not encounter a finer performance of this autumnal masterpiece. Richard Morrison, The Times, November 2019 BACH St John Passion¸ Orchestra of the Age of Enlightenment, Simon Rattle. Royal Festival Hall, London Mark Padmore has given us many excellent evangelists, yet this heartfelt, aggrieved, intimate take on St John’s gospel narrative, sometimes spiked with penetrating pauses, still seemed exceptional.

  • In a World Gone Mad, Can Great Music Help Us See the Light? Orchestra Of
    Kings Place 90 York Way London N1 9AG Principal Artists John Butt Sir Mark Elder Iván Fischer Vladimir Jurowski Sir Simon Rattle Sir András Schiff Emeritus Conductors William Christie Sir Roger Norrington In a world gone mad, can great music help us see the light? Orchestra of the Age of Enlightenment’s 2020-21 Southbank Centre Season: The Edge of Reason Press Release: 20 February 2020 The Edge of Reason is part four of the Orchestra of the Age of Enlightenment’s (OAE’s) Six Chapters of Enlightenment – concert seasons at Southbank Centre, where the OAE is Resident Orchestra. The series is inspired by the golden age of science and philosophy that gave the Orchestra its name. Crispin Woodhead, OAE Chief Executive, says: “We’re excited to be exploring the great arguments of the 18th century Enlightenment that still grip us today. Where do we find reason? What happens when we get to the edge of it – beyond it, even? What can the big debates and artworks of the past teach us as we stand, apparently, on the threshold of irrationality. The OAE is democratic, run by musicians who like to ask questions. This season, we look at where the boundaries of reason really lie with great works by Handel, Strauss, Schubert and others.’’ For many of their performances, whether in a concert hall or a pub (at its groundbreaking The Night Shift gigs), the Orchestra of the Age of Enlightenment introduces the music from the stage to share insights and connect with the audience. Playing on instruments the composer would have known and used, the players aim to make old works sound as new and fresh as when they were written.
