Live music event celebrating William Blake

Poet and painter, prophet and visionary, William Blake remains one of the truly original, great British poets. Neglected in his own lifetime he died in poverty. He expressed a caring concern for his fellow man through his art and his legacy would be to inspire and guide the spirits of future generations.

GLAD DAY is a powerful and uplifting musical experience. Capturing the spirit of Blake’s work, it continues to champion one of London’s finest artists as an important and influential part of our cultural heritage.

The concert takes place on National Poetry Day and features composer and pianist Guy Pearson accompanied by soprano Sara Burns and Cellist Emily Burridge.
