ARS MORIENDI
A torchlit walk and a candlelit performance of songs on the theme of death and madness
A Concert in the Cemetery with with Béatrice de Larragoïti
A part of the London Month of the Dead
At the Dissenters and Anglican Chapels, Ladbroke Grove, Kensal Green Cemetery
Guests will gather at the Dissenters’ Chapel in Kensal Green cemetery shortly after sunset to steel their nerves with a bracing Hendricks’ gin and tonic before embarking on a candlelit procession through the gravestones until they arrive at the heart of the cemetery - the Anglican chapel - where French-Brazilian soprano Béatrice de Larragoïti will await to perform a candlelit recital on the theme of death and madness.
Drawing on her native French repertoire the programme will include Charles-Valentin Alkan’s mysterious “The Song of the Mad Woman by the Sea”, Poulenc’s chilling “My Corpse is Soft as a Glove” and Messiaen’s feral “Terror” as well as more established repertoire such as Mendelssohn’s “Witches’ Song”, Saint-Saëns’ “Danse Macabre” and “The Dream of a Witches’ Sabbath” from Berlioz’s Symphonie Fantastique.
Béatrice de Larragoïti
After studying at the Ecole Normale Alfred Cortot in Paris, Béatrice graduated from the Trinity Laban Conservatoire of Music and Dance, obtaining a Master of Music and a Postgraduate Artist Diploma with distinction under Alison Wells. Béatrice also holds degrees in Art History from the Sorbonne University and the Ecole du Louvre. She recently sang Ottavia in L’Incoronazione di Poppea with Hampstead Garden Opera.
