Britten Weekend: Saint Nicolas - What's On - Snape

Britten Sinfonia and the BBC Singers combine to realise Britten’s joyous cantata telling the tale of the saint that inspired Santa Claus – some of the composer’s brightest and boldest music.

Also on the programme is Britten’s tribute to fellow composer and his teacher, Frank Bridge – an astonishing showcase for strings, full of rich textures and ravishing sonorities. Arvo Pärt’s moving tribute to Britten closes the first half, a moment of reflection as we mark 50 years since Britten’s death, almost to the day.
