Borough New Music

This programme features premieres by Kate Soper (b. 1981) and Ben Smith (b. 1991).

Both explore language and meaning in various states of fragmentation, framed by two rarely performed chamber works by Salvatore Sciarrino (b. 1947).

Lunchtime programme:
- Salvatore Sciarrino (b. 1947) - Due melodie per soprano e pianoforte (1978)
