Live, Video: Find classical music concert, opera, ballet and dance reviews | Sonntag (Sunday), Op.47 no.3

A traditional Lieder programme at the Edinburgh International Festival brings songs concerned with love, celebrating its joys but more often lamenting its loss and its pains. 

In her opening words to this evening’s presentation of Kathleen Ferrier’s life and letters, Diana Moore said that Ferrier was an inspiration to every mezzo-soprano or alto who came after her, and despite its flaws, this concert was clearly a heartfelt tribute to a truly great singer, by one who has learned from her.

El tenor alemán Klaus Florian Vogt presentó en el Festival de Peralada un programa desnortado y en el que apenas brilló como intérprete, demasiado aterido por el formato de recital, con el que sin duda está poco familiarizado.
