Laboratory of Lullabies
Naomi Burrell and Johan Löfving
Naomi will take you on a whistle-stop, concert tour of her new project, the ‘Laboratory of Lullabies’, which she recorded in Gothenburg and developed at Britten Pears earlier this year. Playing violin and singing, she will be joined by Johan Löfving on lute and guitar in a medley of lullabies and ‘night-time' music from baroque and folk traditions which will entertain children and adults alike. She explores her Swiss-german and Scottish roots, some Swedish and yiddish, as well as delving into some poetry.
