🔓thoroughly good podcast 228: Aldeburgh and Snape 50 years after Britten’s death
About this episode
Fifty years after Britten’s death, Aldeburgh and Snape still carry his fingerprints — and still provoke the same question: what is this place actually for? In this special episode, contributors who’ve performed there, programmed it, and thought hard about its future speak in their own voices about why they came to East Suffolk, and why they couldn’t leave.
