Rune
A Merveillous Swevene
Dreams and Visions
Rune explores one of the great medieval obsessions: dreams and visions.
Songs of dreams and visions are interwoven with readings from fourteenth-century English dream poems, illuminating some of the recurrent scenes and motifs in this rich tradition. This programme reveals the close intertwining of sacred and secular thought and a dialogue between literature and music that invites modern listeners to reflect on what the subconscious may still be trying to tell us.
Doors open from 18:00, and the bar will be open to purchase refreshments.
