Event description

Join us for an unforgettable evening of music at Shriver Hall as we present the acclaimed tenor Ian Bostridge, accompanied by the masterful pianist Julius Drake, in a performance that promises to be a highlight of the Shriver Hall Concert Series. This special event, part of The Helen Coplan Harrison Concert, will take place on Sunday, March 09, 2025, at 5:30 pm.

Ian Bostridge, renowned for his expressive performances and unique ability to convey emotion and meaning, will bring to life a program rich in literary and musical significance. Featuring a selection of music set to the profound texts of William Shakespeare and the transcendent Holy Sonnets by Britten, with texts by poet John Donne, this concert is a celebration of English lyricism and composition. Julius Drake, celebrated for his partnership with leading artists, will join Bostridge, bringing his exceptional pianism to this imaginative collection.

Before the performance, attendees are invited to a Pre-Concert Talk at 4:30 pm in Shriver Hall, offering insights into the evening's program and enhancing the concert experience. The concert itself will last approximately 1 hour and 40 minutes, including an intermission, ensuring an evening filled with beautiful music and compelling interpretations.

This concert is endowed by the sons of Dr. Helen Harrison, a long-time Shriver Hall Concert Series Board member, in her honor. It reflects the series' commitment to presenting performances of the highest caliber in a venue known for its acoustics and intimate setting.

Ian Bostridge's international career has taken him to the world's leading concert halls, and his recordings have received numerous awards. Julius Drake, known as the "collaborative pianist nonpareil," brings his extensive experience and artistry to this collaboration. Together, they promise an evening of unforgettable musicality and emotional depth.

Tickets are available for purchase, and we encourage early booking to secure your place at this not-to-be-missed event. Join us at Shriver Hall for a performance that celebrates the power of music and poetry, performed by artists at the pinnacle of their craft.
