Sholto Kynoch piano

Tickets:
£25
£23 (unwaged/disabled)
FREE (U30/students)

Benjamin Appl is well-established as one of the most exciting song artists of today. A former BBC New Generation Artist, a Rising Star of the European Concert Hall Organisation (ECHO) and prolific and award-winning recording artist, he appears at all the major music centres.

In a typically thoughtful programme, Benjamin Appl and Sholto Kynoch, Director of Oxford International Song Festival, perform a recital that explores the silences between the notes. A centrepiece of Schumann’s Liederkreis Op 39 with evocative poetry by Eichendorff is complemented with songs by Schubert, Monteverdi, Wolf and James MacMillan.

A perfect way to close the Leeds Lieder 20th Anniversary Festival!

This event is part of the Evening Recitals Pass. Find out more about our Festival Passes here.
