Biographical note

Project Summary: 2010 marks the anniversary year of thre composers, Carlo Gesualdo (b.1560) Robert Schumann (b.1810) and Hugo Wolf (b.1860) whose lives – and music – were deeply affected by mental instability and an extremity of emotional experience.This presents a compelling opportunity in 2010 for the Cheltenham Music Festival to undertake a critical exploration of the relationship between brain disease and music.Drawing on the lives of our anniversary composers in particular, we will explore through music performances and associated talk, debates and films, the connections of the mind, the brain and music.
