‘Upon what instrument have we been strung?’ Using Birtwistle’s ‘Lied ohne Worte’ from Bogenstrich (Meditations on a Poem of Rilke) as a starting point, Hugh Mackay curates an introspective concert that explores themes of connection, overcoming adversity, mortality and our relationship with the planet.
