The Heart's Assurance - Tippett

Thomas Elwin is the tenor soloist in The Heart’s Assurance – the most remarkable and fearless setting of poetry by young men who fought and died in WW2. These poems, thrusting sensual desire into a landscape of death, finds response in movement by Bernadette Iglich.

A Charm of Lullabies - Britten
