In this episode we discuss Clarke's life from birth up though 1913 and we are joined by her great-nephew Christopher Johnson to discuss Clarke's legacy and her song The Seal Man with guest artists Joanna Harries and Natalie Burch.\nAll quotes from today's episode are taken from Christopher's not yet published book on Rebecca Clarke. The other source I consulted for this episode was the book Quartet by Dr. Leah Broad.\nFor more information please see Christopher's website rebeccaclarkecomposer.com\nClick here to watch Joanna and Natalie perform on YouTube\nClick here to read John Masefield's short story The Seal Man from his collection A Mainsail Haul.\nFollow the Lieder is a production of Cincinnati Song Initiative.
