STRAUSS METAMORPHOSEN
INSIDE A MUSICAL MASTERPIECE
 

Sunday 10 November, 2019   
Barts Pathology Museum
24 W Smithfield, London EC1A 7BE
​

On Remembrance Sunday, we entered a labyrinth of music, memory and moral questioning, literally taking you inside Richard Strauss’s Metamorphosen for 23 Solo Strings.  

Emerging from the destruction of Germany’s cultural heritage in 1943-44, Strauss’s intensely moving meditation was lovingly opened up, its strands examined and revealed by conductor Tom Seligman, in the intimate setting of this museum dedicated to the wonders of the body.
