About

Helen Charlston mezzo soprano
Toby Carr theorbo

Inspired by the vivid music of Purcell, Charpentier, Stozzi and Monteverdi, this programme is specially curated for the glorious surroundings of the Merchant Adventurers Hall and showcases the premiere of a 2025 NCEM commission from composer Anna Disley-Simpson.

Gramophone award winners Helen Charston and Toby Carr ferry us to the underworld to find out what lies on the other side. In a journey that tussles between doubt and faith, encounters the darkest hell in the warmest embrace and confronts the reality of free will, what will your choice be?
