Interview
Barbara Hannigan on Kurt Weill and William Walton
Barbara Hannigan and Simon Rattle with “Façade” by William Walton
What a programme Sir Simon Rattle and soprano Barbara Hannigan assembled for this Late Night: naughty, sophisticated, sexy and subversive – and also very British. William Walton’s 1923 “entertainment” Façade brought him overnight the reputation – deservedly – of an enfant terrible of modern English music.
