Handel, Spohr, Waxman and Strauss
Much-loved soprano Miah Persson, celebrated by The Sunday Times for her Wigmore Hall Live recording ‘mixing charm, depth and romantic ardour’, returns with a programme spanning over two and a half centuries of music, from Handel to Donald Waxman’s Lovesongs.
The recital is crowned by Strauss’s ‘Morgen’ and ‘Beim Schlafengehen’ from Four Last Songs, sparkling jewels of the Lieder repertoire.
