Songs of Love

55 Norfolk Street, Sheffield, S1 1DA

Description

Claire Booth is a singer celebrated around the world for her distinctive and characterful voice and the relentless curiosity in the range of work she presents. In recent years she has become a frequent collaborator with Ensemble 360, including a much-lauded CD release Pierrot Portraits. As they prepare for Sheffield Chamber Music Festival 2026, of which Claire is Guest Curator, they present a dazzling evening of French chamber music.

In 1913 Debussy and Ravel began a somewhat friendly rivalry to set three poems by Stéphane Mallarmé, whose words, like the music of these great French composers, explored the same shimmering textures beloved of their contemporary impressionist painters. Ravel’s Chansons madécasses – one of the most popular works in SCMF 2024 – opens this sensuous celebration of light and love which concludes with Debussy’s glittering string quartet.
