Rebecca Lea & Clara Kanter Headline Jewish-Themed Performances in Hampstead

The songs will set texts by Yehuda Amichai with themes focusing on the human condition, energy and vulnerability of children, and the end of love.
That concert will also feature a performance of Brahms’ String Quartet No. 2 in A minor.
Performance Date: Nov. 6, 2022
Next up is a recital starring mezzo Clara Kanter and pianist Ben Smith. They will feature a wide range of music set against a backdrop of a new film cantata by Alastair White.
