SUMMARY:Skipton Camerata: Myth
DESCRIPTION:\nPurcell – Overture to Diod and Aeneas\nPurcell – Music for a While\nGrieg – Prelude from Holburg Suite\nPurcell – Fairest Isle\nVaughan Williams – Dives and Lazarus\nGluck – Che faro Eurydice\nBarber – Adagio\nGluck – Senzo un Addio\nDelius – Hy Brasil\nSchoenburg – Verklarte Nacht\nThis programme starts our season inspired by the contemporary debate on migration, as it journeys from ancient myth, whether this be the myth of a bright future in Purcell’s “Fairest Isle”, or the myth of the fabled isle of Hy-Brasil in Irish legend to modern confession, exploring how stories are shaped and shared through music and movement, and how art helps us understand who we are.\nThe first half focuses on storytelling in sound. Arias by Purcell and Gluck draw us into worlds of drama and imagination, where love, loss and truth are voiced with striking emotional clarity. Though rooted in myth, these moments feel timeless and immediate.\nString music by Vaughan Williams, Barber and Grieg continues the narrative without words, using colour, atmosphere and melody to evoke landscape, memory and legend. These are stories suggested rather than told, inviting listeners to bring their own experiences to the music.\nIn the second half, Schoenberg’s Verklärte Nacht turns inward. Paired with a new choreography by the Rees Dance Company, music and movement trace an intense, intimate journey from darkness towards understanding, bringing the programme to a powerful close.\nSave on Skipton Camerata Concerts 2026:\n\nIf you book tickets for all four Skipton Camerata Concerts in 2026 (Myth, Trial, Sanctuary, Messiah), you will receive £10 off for each attendee.\nEach event ticket is £25 with the exception of Messiah.\nDiscount is automatic, and is based upon availability.\nPlease contact Skipton Town Hall box office for any queries\n\n\n\nDuration:\n\nTBC\n\n\n\nImportant Information:\n\nThe performance will start promptly at 19.30.
