The frozen waste that is the Antarctic has provided inspiration to countless musicians and artists the world over. This evening of music, poetry and film continues that tradition, bringing to life Captain Scott's expedition to the South Pole in a spendid audiovisual manner. There are readings from Scott's diary, music from Vaughan Williams' Scott of the Antarctic soundtrack and the world premiere of Cecilia McDowell's new Scott-inspired music, set to poet Seán Street's rhythmic patter.
