The Britten Sinfonia in the first of two live concerts from Snape Maltings introduced by Martin Handley and featuring music, in part, inspired by the past. Lisa Illean offers a re-imagining of music by the Franco-Flemish early renaissance composer Gilles Binchois alongside a new work, Swellsongs, with Australian recorder-player Genevieve Lacey. Also on the programme is Brett Dean's masterly Carlo - his response to the music of Carlo Gesualdo.
