Christina Rossetti in Music

Ester welcomes the wonderful Mary Arseneau to the podcast to talk about the incredible project 'Christina Rossetti in Music'. The musicality of Christina Rossetti's poetry is an area that is often underappreciated, yet central to how we relate to Rossetti today. Mary Arseneau explains how and why Christina Rossetti's poetry lends itself particularly well to musical interpretation and outlines the importance and scale of the project.
