Susheela Raman, Jason Whittaker and Sam Mills plus Charles Hayward: William Blake in Songs and Words

Acclaimed for her audacious cross-cultural musical creations, singer/composer Susheela Raman's latest adventure encounters the magical imagination of one of London's most creative sons, William Blake

Susheela’s original settings of Blake poems, such as the epic “Proverbs of Hell”, are threaded with spoken word performances of Blake’s writings by Jason Whittaker, author and Blake expert and accompanied by inventive guitarist and composer Sam Mills.

Blake summoned his visionary art and poetry from many sources and continues to fascinate and inspire countless writers, music makers and visual artists. The “Golden String” offered here unwinds in words and music though Blake, from the Renaissance magic of Shakespeare’s “Tempest” to William Burroughs and David Bowie.

Susheela Raman will be supported by eminent musician and composer Charles Hayward.

Part of Visions and Voices: Echoes of William Blake. A season of events at St James Church Piccadilly celebrating William Blake, who was baptised at the church. Programmed in collaboration with The Blake Society.
