Three Views of Shakesepare
Shakespeare has been a huge source of inspiration for all the arts, including music. Several great composers have written music on ideas from, about, or around some of his plays.
​
Though Shakespeare's works are either fictional or fictionalised, the emotions and human relationships within are not, and these resonate profoundly with us, as does the music composed to characterise them. For this project I've chosen to conduct three views of Shakespeare: Prokoffiev's 'Romeo and Juliet', Mendelssohn's 'A Midsummer Night’s Dream', and Walton's 'Henry V' suite.
