Summary

Mezzo-soprano Beth Taylor and pianist Marcia Hadjimarkos perform songs by Beethoven, Tailleferre, Haydn and others at the Glasgow Royal Concert Hall’s New Auditorium.

Why it's fantastic

The mezzo-soprano Beth Taylor brings an intimate touch to this survey of art song, moving from Beethoven’s spiritual depth to the wit of Arthur Sullivan. It is a rare chance to hear Tailleferre’s playful melodies alongside rarely performed gems, all accompanied by the delicate, historically informed textures of a square piano.

  • 02Tailleferre - Trois chansons de Jean Tardieu
