Jonathan Dove’s music has filled opera houses with delighted audiences of all ages on five continents. Few, if any, contemporary composers have so successfully or consistently explored the potential of music to communicate, to create wonder and to enrich people’s lives. It is so exciting that the opening event of the 2022 Leeds Lieder Festival features a living composer. He introduces his song cycle Man, Woman, Child - settings of poems by Judith Wright - which will receive its first performance outside London at today’s lunchtime recital.
