About this concert

Celebrate the beauty of nature through sound in Dawn Chorus, a breathtaking new concerto by Emmy-nominated Scottish composer Erland Cooper, performed by violinist Freya Goldmark. Inspired by Sir David Attenborough’s extraordinary legacy in his 100th birthday year, Cooper — hailed by The Guardian as “nature’s songwriter” — weaves the evocative songs of birds and the rhythms of life into a musical tribute to the natural world. The concert also features classical music curated by Cooper alongside his original compositions.
