Mahler Song Series II

Jennifer Johnston (mezzo-soprano)
Joseph Middleton (piano)

Programme to include Mahler’s Kindertotenlieder and
Rückert Lieder and songs by Wagner and Liszt

Since graduating from the BBC New Generation Artist’s Scheme, Jennifer Johnston has forged an international career that places her at the forefront of British singers. Appearances this season include at the Salzburg Festival and La Scala Milan and with the Berlin Philharmonic, Vienna Symphony and Cleveland Orchestras. Increasingly known as a superb Mahlerian, her rich-toned voice is perfectly suited to this repertoire. Her recent Wigmore Hall recital with Joseph Middleton drew enthusiastic reviews.

This concert will be recorded by BBC Radio 3 for deferred broadcast.
