In a special fundraiser for Jenny Lind Children’s Hospital, we present a programme celebrating Jenny Lind, an artist and a humanitarian whose special bond with the people of Norfolk still resonates today.
Charting her early life in Sweden and her fascinating circle of musical and artistic friends, we reimagine her career through the music of Felix and Fanny Mendelssohn, Robert and Clara Schuman and then follow Jenny on her path to global stardom and her visits to Norwich. The project is devised by acclaimed pianist and conductor Simon Crawford-Phillips who is joined, in a return to the Festival, by soprano, Carolyn Sampson and one of the greatest advocates of an instrumental voice, violist and violinist, Lawrence Power.
