Canadian tenor Michael Schade confirmed his undisputed Mozartian credentials and brought vivid intensity to songs by Strauss at the Concertgebouw in Amsterdam.

Festival Director Jane Anthony made a brief appearance before this concert, reminding the audience that it was dedicated to the memory of Lord Harewood, who died earlier this year. He had been a staunch supporter of Leeds Lieder+, with a great gift for spotting and developing young singers.
