Description was written before the event

A Russian winter market, a puppet with feelings - and riddles born from music. The concert conducted by Elim Chan is built around playfulness: soprano Claire de Sévigné ventures into Unsuk Chin's nonsense world, and two rarely heard Czech works complete the evening's programme.

After the main concert, the late-evening chamber music continues with works by Alban Berg and Franz Schreker.
