FOLK SONGS and ROMANCES
Mezzo-Soprano Susan Platts & Baritone Phillip Addis with Pianists Emily Hamper & Erika Switzer.
British-born Canadian Susan Platts has the honour of commencing Britten's birthday celebration with a selection of his folk songs. Bearing gifts in the form of gorgeous Strauss Lieder and Mahler's beautiful cycle Lieder eines fahrenden Gesellen, this protégée of Jessye Norman will fill ears and hearts with richness. Her pianist, VISI founding faculty Erika Switzer, will delight with acclaimed stage presence, sense of partnering, and limpid tone.
In a SONGFIRE Festival first, Phillip Addis and Emily Hamper, accomplices in life and performance, will grace the festival stage. They promise to take audiences on an unforgettable sonorous voyage with folk songs by Britten, Romances by Tchaikovsky, and Fauré's swan song cycle L'horizon chimérique.
