About
Part of our In Focus series, inviting trailblazing composers to the RNCM.
Roxanna Panufnik is one of Britain?s most distinctive and versatile composers, known for her ability to blend musical cultures and build bridges between faiths. A long-standing advocate for interfaith musical dialogue, she weaves together sacred traditions from Christianity, Judaism, and Islam.
This concert brings together a selection of Roxanna Panufnik?s captivating solo works, each showcasing her signature blend of lyricism, cultural influences, and storytelling. Babylonia for solo piano evokes the mysticism of an ancient world, while A Wind at Rook?s Haven for solo flute paints an atmospheric soundscape. Vocal music takes centre stage in Mine Eye and Sweet Love Remember?d, inspired by Shakespeare. Hora Bessarabia for solo violin pulses with Eastern European folk rhythms, and adding to the mix, a new work by Haodong Wang for solo flute promises further discovery in this rich and evocative programme.
