And here’s the second half of the song cycle “Seven Sonnets of Michelangelo, Opus No. 22”(https://tinyurl.com/nx7nufhk) from the same 1956 Japanese performance. Shortly before Britten’s passing, Pears declared this piece to be both his favorite of Britten’s compositions and the most meaningful to them both.

Forgot to mention that Britten wrote “Seven Sonnets of Michelangelo, Opus No. 22” in the original Italian that Michelangelo used, which was a challenge for both Britten & Pears as they primarily worked in English language music

Benjamin Britten & Peter Pears met in 1937 and quickly became friends, creative collaborators and lovers. Their partnership lasted for 40yrs (Britten passed in 1976) Pears was Britten’s muse and inspired him to center his operatic & choral work around the tenor voice/range.- including five song cycles. Due to the criminalization of Homosexuality at the time, they lived publicly closeted lives but were as close to “married” as possible in private
