About
Multi award-winning orchestra Manchester Camerata, perform live at The Hepworth Wakefield, celebrating their new commission inspired by the works of Barbara Hepworth, written by Nick Martin.
The programme pairs Martin’s new work with music by Mozart, Britten, and Priaulx Rainier, all celebrating themes of youth, creativity, and Hepworth’s artistic legacy.
Nick Martin is a composer based in Copenhagen. Composed whilst staying in St Ives, Nick says, “A particular point of inspiration has been Barbara Hepworth’s Landscape Sculpture—a carved torso-sized, cradle-like form in elm with nine strings of fishing line. I found the number nine resonant, suggestive of the nine months of pregnancy”.
There is also a pre-concert talk about the works of Barbara before the concert.
