Sonic Threads

Led by mezzo-soprano Joanna Harries and members of Ensemble Augelletti, and inspired by the historic 18th century Barts North Wing, this soundscape weaves together Baroque music and spoken word from historical medical treatises and texts created in workshops with Barts hospital staff and patients.
