The wonderful bass singer Matthew Rose dropped in to the Red House Library in the summer, and sang one of Britten's most well-known and well-loved folksongs, 'The Foggy, Foggy Dew'. He gives a brief, fascinating introduction to the song, and is accompanied on Britten's Steinway by Dr Lucy Walker (Head of Public Engagement at Britten Pears Arts).
