The festive season can often be a hectic time of year. Wintering is a balm for the soul – an invitation to slow down, to reconnect with the land and one another, as we usher in the solstice.
What if we made peace with the darkest time of year? Inspired by Katherine May’s bestselling book Wintering, a new piece from composer Samantha Fernando asks us to cherish nature’s fallow period and draw on its power for healing.
Vocal ensemble The Marian Consort joins Manchester Collective’s string quartet for this intimate performance of music across the centuries. Expect a deeply restorative evening, as we find respite in an alternative nativity song, crystalline harmonies, and a meditation on freedom and unity.
Samantha Fernando’s ‘Wintering’ is commissioned by Wigmore Hall
