Harrison Birtwistle's Bow Down at Spitalfields Music Summer Festival

Harrison Birtwistle's Bow Down at Spitalfields Music Summer Festival

Spitalfields Festival
London
United Kingdom

Presented by The Opera Group, in association with the London Sinfonietta.



A macabre folktale is brought to percussive and visceral life in this interdisciplinary performance. When The Fair Sister is courted by The Suitor, The Dark Sister commits a terrible act of betrayal. But as her crime echoes through the land and across the ages will she finally receive retribution?

Bow Down is an ancient murder ballad reimagined by young performers and players.
