Dreams, Delusions and Desires
"When the night sings, its song is one of mystery."
The night brings the imagination to life. It's filled with gentle lullabies that send us to a peaceful slumber, or scary nightmares that startle us in the darkness. It can transport us to a blissful dreamland, but also has the power to plunge our delusional minds into a distorted reality, revealing our greatest fears and desires.
Our nocturnal programme explores serene dreaming from Schubert's Nacht und Traume, enchanting midnight love in Wolf's Verschwiegene Liebe, to an outpouring of heightened emotions conjured at night through Debussy's Apparition. Also expect some all-time family favourites from Chitty Chitty Bang Bang and Carousel, and modern Indian song.

Rachmaninoff Preludes and Nirvana on piano
The program features an unusual mixture of Rachmaninoff Preludes and Nirvana, all performed on the piano by four remarkable musicians - Maya Irgalina, Elena Toponogova, Mikhail Shilyaev and Sasha Grynyuk. Their music will be interspersed with fragments from Pavel's book 'Russian cut-up' and his interviews. This eclectic mix reflects Pavel's own tendency to juxtaposition what at first glance might seem incompatible.
This is our second concert series in support of Pavel Kushnir Memorial Scholarship with performances also taking place in Berlin, Paris, Amsterdam and Tel Aviv. Established by artists, musicians, and creators, this scholarship aims to support students from Russia, Ukraine, and Belarus in pursuing their musical studies at leading institutions worldwide. All proceeds from this concert will contribute to establishing these scholarships, and additional donations are warmly welcomed.

Since the beginning of the Church, music has profoundly shaped the patterns of Christian worship. As a powerful form capable of moving hearts and directing desires, Christians have often grappled with how to integrate this complex and yet deeply essential form of praise. What is the right balance between emotivity of musical expression and the rationality of the spoken word? Should the music of the church reflect cultural trends or have its own unique form and style? So often, these questions come into being in the working relationship of ministers who lead liturgy and the musicians who support them. While there is real potential for partnership between these roles, musicians and clergy are often focused on the criteria unique to their disciplines. This opens up the question: what is the right way to reconcile these equally important and yet sometimes contrasting motivations? This conference offers a possible pathway by outlining a historically and theologically rich vision of music and spirituality, rooted in both prayer and practice. Sessions will address the crucial role of musical theology in Christian worship, the importance of prayer as a foundation, and how these aspects might help guide the healthy mission of clergy and musicians. The day will include talks, space for discussion and connection with others, times of prayer, and, of course, transformative musical worship. Whether clergy, musician, or simply a layperson passionate about the role of liturgical music in your parish, we hope you will join us in discovering new ways of glorifying God in our parishes and Christian communities through music.

Holy Sepulchre, The National Musicians' Church, is delighted to celebrate the arrival of its newly rebuilt Steinway Model D piano. As the Musicians' Church, this instrument is to be used for music-making of the highest calibre but also to enhance causes close to the heart of the church. As such, Freedom Cries Out is the perfect event, featuring soprano Samantha Crawford and pianist Berrak Dyer and music by leading contemporary composers, including Errollyn Wallen, Cecilia McDowall, Cheryl Frances-Hoad, Roxanna Panufnik and a world premiere by Raymond Yiu.
The concert is a song recital and is called Freedom Cries Out, a programme of new music sung and put together by Soprano, Samantha Crawford, which tells the stories of displaced people and refugees.
The programme touches on themes of Homeland, Exile, War, Family, Hope and New Beginnings. Freedom Cries Out features a newly commissioned song cycle by Raymond Yiu, setting stories from real refugee accounts taken from literary magazine, 'The Other Side of Hope.' It also includes the UK premiere of Shawn Okpebholo's song cycle 'Words Like Freedom,' setting poems of Langston Hughes, and Jake Heggie's 'These Strangers.' These cycles sit alongside selected songs by Errollyn Wallen, Cecilia McDowall, Cheryl Frances-Hoad amongst others. The programme features two newly created songs from arias in Roxanna Panufnik's opera, 'Dalia' (Garsington Opera, 2022), telling the story of a Syrian refugee girl as she crosses the Mediterranean Sea.
British Australian soprano Samantha Crawford is equally at home on the opera stage as she is on the concert platform, who has been praised for her 'unconstricted soprano radiance,' (Opera) and 'crystalline tone and diction.' (The Arts Desk).
A versatile artist, Samantha's opera roles include Sieglinde and Ortlinde in Die Walküre, Elisabeth in Tannhäuser, Santuzza in Cavalleria Rusticana, the title role in Suor Angelica, Agathe in Der Freischütz, Miss Jessel in The Turn of the Screw, Mrs. Coyle in Owen Wingrave, Regan in Keith Warner's production of Tippett's New Year, Donna Anna in Don Giovanni, Fiordiligi in Così fan tutte, Contessa Almaviva in Le nozze di Figaro, Rosalinde in Die Fledermaus and Ofglen in Ruders' The Handmaid's Tale for opera houses including Teatro Real Madrid, ENO, Glyndebourne, Scottish Opera, the Aldeburgh and Edinburgh Festivals, Garsington Opera and Théâtre municipal de Fontainebleau. Her performances at Teatro Real, both in Robert Carsen's production of Die Walküre and Claus Guth's production of Parsifal, were filmed for television and broadcast to cinemas across Spain. She has worked with conductors such as Semyon Bychkov, Pablo Heras-Casado, Mark Wigglesworth, Vasily Petrenko, Thierry Fischer, Martyn Brabbins and Sir Colin Davis.
In 2023, Samantha released her debut album, dream.risk.sing: elevating women's voices, to critical acclaim with pianist Lana Bode on Delphian Records. Praised as 'one of the most arresting recording-debuts I've heard all year' (Presto Music), dream.risk.sing includes Charlotte Bray's Crossing Faultlines, a song cycle exploring women's experiences in the workplace which was commissioned especially for the project, and received its world première at Oxford International Song Festival. The album also features the first ever recordings of Crossing Faultlines, Libby Larsen's songs from her The Birth Projectand songs from Judith Weir's woman.life.song. It is supported by Arts Council England and the RVW Trust.
In 2024, Samantha began producing a new programme, Freedom Cries Out, telling stories of displaced people and refugees. The programme will feature the world premiere of a song cycle by Raymond Yiu especially commissioned for the project and the UK premiere of Shawn Okpebholo's song cycle, Words Like Freedom. Freedom Cries Out is supported by the VW Foundation and Finzi Friends.
Equally at home in concert, she has performed across the UK, Europe and Asia. Recent engagements include performances at the Wigmore Hall, Royal Albert Hall, the Barbican, Hong Kong City Hall and Schlosstheater Schönbrunn. With notable repertoire including Verdi's Requiem, Mendelssohn's Elijah, Strauss's Vier letzte Lieder, Wagner's Wesendonck Lieder, Dvořák's Stabat Mater and Vaughan Williams' Sea Symphony.
Samantha studied with Yvonne Kenny AM as a Baroness de Turckheim Scholar at the Guildhall School of Music gainingboth Bachelor and Master of Music degrees and graduated from the Opera Course with Distinction. She was awarded the Golden Medal with Honours at the 2017 Berliner International Music Competition; the 2017/18 NSW Wagner Society Award for Emerging Wagner Singers; and, in 2016, won First Prize and the President's Prize at the Wagner Society Singing Competition in London. Committed to the development of young artists, Samantha joined the Board of Trustees at The Australian Music Foundation in 2024.
Berrak Dyer studied at GSMD and the National Opera Studio. She has worked on Snow, Goldilocks and the Three Little Pigs, The Yellow Wallpaper, conductor for Robin Hood, Beauty and the Seven Beasts (The Opera Story), Rhhonda Rips It Up (Welsh National Opera), Eugene Onegin, The Dancing Master (Buxton International Festival), assistant conductor on Cosi fan Tutte (ETO), Psychosis 4.48, Phaedra, The Lost Thing, Blue Woman (Royal Opera House). Gigi, L'Elisir D'amore, Il Barbiere di Siviglia (West Green House Opera), La Fanciulla del West, Lakme, La Traviata, Eugene Onegin, Hansel und Gretel, Itch, Tosca (Opera Holland Park). Berrak conducted the Opera Scenes at Royal Birmingham Conservatoire in 2023. This year Berrak will be joining Britten Pears Arts on the world premiere of A Visit to Friends by Colin Matthews and returning to Buxton as MD for Shorts.

An evening of glorious music awaits you in the majestic setting of the Musicians’ Church, and includes a not to be missed, rarely performed An English Mass by Herbert Howells.
7:30pm Tuesday 1st April 2025
Holy Sepulchre London, Holborn Viaduct, EC1A 2DQ, London, EC1A 2DQ
Finzi | Requiem da Camera
Howells | An English Mass
Bob Chilcott | My Prayer
Farrar | Margaritae Sorori
Rota | Sonata per orchestra da camera
Friendship links three of the works in our programme: Farrar, Finzi, Howells, and Harold Darke (organist of St Michael’s Cornhill 1916-1966). Finzi’s beautiful and intimate Requiem da Camera was written in memory of his esteemed teacher Ernest Farrar, killed in the final days of the First World War, and Farrar’s moving and lyrical partsong Margaritae Sorori which follows is a fitting valediction.
Howells wrote his turbulent An English Mass, a work full of agony and ecstasy, for Darke and his The St Michael’s Singers in the year after the disastrous first performances of his vast Missa Sabrinensis.
Early Bird concert Ticket £22 (to 10/3/25)
