A lecture-recital by Steven Isserlis CBE, accompanied by Tom Poster. Isserlis explores the themes of innocence and wonder in music, the most universal of arts. How does music evoke and encourage senses of wonder? Can music open us up to wonder in our world and lives when they are numbed by the speed, routine, and commodification of life? He concludes with a performance of César Franck’s Cello Sonata. This event took place on 1st June 2018 at St Edmund's College and was the concluding event of the Von Hugel Institute's series of events on the theme ‘grammars of wonder’.
