Imogen Whitehead opens her Festival residency with a vibrant duo programme alongside Rachel Mahon, drawing on the colours and grandeur of Ampleforth’s mighty organ, with big screen projection live from the organ loft. From a famous march often known as Trumpet Voluntary to Messiaen’s blazing affirmation of faith, this partnership is shaped by virtuosity and shared musical imagination.
