The folk influence in classical music has stretched across centuries
of writing and many nations, and continues to do so. Featuring guest artist UK mezzo soprano Lotte Betts-Dean in the highly popular folksong travelogue by Italian composer Luciano Berio, Ensemble Q presents a boots-and-all style exploration of the earthy influence of music from countries including Ireland, America, Japan, Italy, Sardinia, Azerbaijan, Czechoslovakia, Norway, and more.
