This year’s Little Venice Music Festival will be the fifteenth, and the first to be curated by the Berkeley Ensemble. The Little Venice tradition of vocal performance will be kept alive on Saturday night with a performance featuring award-winning mezzo-soprano Anna Huntley and baritone Nicholas Merryweather, performing songs by Schumann along with more recent melodies from either side of the Atlantic.
