Eclectic Voices, Nick Cooper, Lily Payne and Adrian Thompson perform a new song cycle based on settings of selection of Keats' poetry composed by Scott Stroman.

The World Premiere will take place at Keats House, Hampstead, appropriately where some of the poetry was composed.

The programme is completed with some short choral works by Benjamin Britten. Tenor - Adrian Thompson Cello - Nick Cooper Clarinet - Lily Payne Choir - Eclectic Voices Conductor - Scott Stroman Each performance (at 13:00 and 15:00) will be a little under an hour.
