The greatest love film ever made, Sunrise: A Song of Two Humans (1927), accompanied with live music from Joanna MacGregor and Andy Sheppard’s Deep River album.

Released to enormous acclaim in 2010, Deep River is a lyrical and original take on traditional gospel songs, as well as Johnny Cash, Tom Waits, Bob Dylan and Nick Cave – music that ranges through evocative melody, virtuoso improvisation, and an inventive use of electronica. Its melancholic, emotionally-charged Americana, improvised live, is the perfect music-and-film marriage.

Part of the Dartington International Summer School 2015 concert and events programme.
