Eine Nacht in Venedig: A fine start for the Leeds Lieder Festival

Richard Wilcocks, 11th October

It was hard to choose from the fascinating menu for The Composer’s Echo (the title for this Leeds Lieder Festival), which is described as “a feast of song from the great Western European tradition which fuses poetry and music” by the festival’s director, Jane Anthony.
