Since the dawn of time, night and it's mysteries have inspired poets and musicians. This recital for voice and piano recalls that: it is presented as a nocturnal promenade through diverse aesthetics, troubling atmospheres and profoundly contrasting emotions. The programme features the known (Schubert, Brahms, Faure') and the lesser known (Bax, Finzi or Berkeley) to form a fascinating ode to the night.
