Jonathan Dove
OPEN TO THE PUBLIC

In this discussion, composer Jonathan Dove will talk about the relationship of his music to memory and remembrance, both in his work about war and conflict (such as his chamber piece In Damascus and his choral work To An Unknown Soldier), and about collective memory more broadly, such as in his TV opera When She Died, which reflects on the death of Princess Diana.
