Intérprete: Christopher Glynn

Au Voces8 Centre, la célèbre soprano entraîne son auditoire dans un voyage de toute beauté, allant de la poésie mystique médiévale aux chants de l’holocauste.

Purists look away. Translating Müller’s poetry from its sublime German to work well in English was always going to be a difficult task, but Spence’s infectious enthusiasm carried it off.

Nina Brazier’s production for Ryedale Festival Opera, on tour at Grimeborn, resoundingly succeeds on all levels, giving us an evening of luxurious beauty, abandoned sensuality and superb characterisation.
