Soprano Ailish Tynan is one of the wonders of the current operatic scene – a singer as charismatic and communicative as her voice is brilliant. But this magical recital programme finds her exploring a more intimate world, as she joins legendary accompanist Iain Burnside in songs inspired by jazz, by German romanticism and by the poetry of Shakespeare. In the hands of Tynan and Burnside, each one is a miniature drama in its own right.
