Tenor Nicholas Phan (“one of the world’s most remarkable singers,” Boston Globe) and the Jasper String Quartet explore the unique sound world of English music. Separated from the mainland by water, England developed its own folk, classical, and popular traditions; a sampling of each will be heard on this stirring program, including British music by Elgar, Vaughan-Williams, Britten, and Canadian composer Vivian Fung.
