About
We've commissioned Joshua Burnside to explore the Huddleston archive and write two new works based on his research, building a bridge and uniting these two bards through music.
Through this collaboration, we hope to bring Huddleston's legacy to life - because our archives are more than historic documents. They're resources that continue to move us and help us learn from the past – inspiring creativity in modern artists and thinkers, but also teaching us about language, cultural identity and our place in a fast-paced modern world.
Watch this intimate performance by Joshua Burnside on Saturday 25th October in the Ulster Folk Museum, alongside readings by Anne McMaster and performances of Huddleston's writings.
