Peter Pears' Birthday
To mark this special occasion there will be a short recital by Ben Hulett and Libby Burgess in The Red House library. The performance will consist of Britten songs written for his greatest inspiration, the singer Peter Pears.
After the concert, we will raise a glass to Pears on what would have been his 113th birthday.
