Synopsis

In line with Safe Management Measures for events exceeding 500 attendees, only fully vaccinated, recovered, medically ineligible individuals, or children aged 12 and below (minimum 7) will be admitted.
Refunds will not be granted to ticket-holders who do not meet these admission requirements.

Emily Brontë, celebrated today for her one and only novel, Wuthering Heights, was an accomplished pianist herself, having even transcribed Beethoven’s symphonies for piano. It is no surprise that the emotional intensity and Byronic sensibilities of her work found parallels in Beethoven’s music, and likewise in the music of the “Beethoven of film music”, Bernard Herrmann.

British soprano Keri Fuge and baritone Roderick Williams join the SSO in a suite on Herrmann’s only opera, Wuthering Heights, in this unique programme connecting these great artists together. Whatever our souls are made of, his and mine are the same.
