Drama on 3: A Soldier and a Maker

Stephanie Cole, Jemma Redgrave and Richard Goulding star in Iain Burnside's WWI play focusing on the tragic figure of poet and songwriter Ivor Gurney. The work interweaves original material with many of Gurney's songs, performed by the cast with Burnside at the piano. In 1918, Gurney suffered the first of a series of breakdowns, triggered in part by the end of a love affair, but continued composing, prodcuding songs, intrumental pieces, chamber music and orchestral works.
