About

Part of our new Inspirational Artists series.

Embark on a powerful journey that inhabits a world of sound and silence, solitude and connection, and love and loss.

Spring Snow weaves the tales of Yasuna, a distinguished Kabuki play from 1818, and Schubert’s timeless Winterreise, from 1827, into a rich tapestry of profound emotion. As grief shatters the souls of both Schubert’s Wanderer and Yasuna, they descend into the depths of self-discovery, and it is here, where this performance unfurls like a delicate bloom.

Two solitary paths cross and inspire one another in breathtaking harmony, merging a celebrated song cycle with the haunting melodies of shamisen music and the graceful movements of traditional Japanese dance-theatre.
