Overview
Much loved by Wigmore Hall audiences for the tonal beauty, lyrical intensity and coruscating wit of her artistry, Alice Coote is universally acknowledged to be among the greatest performers of our time.
She launched her 2014/15 season in the title-role of Handel’s Xerxes at English National Opera before singing Oktavian in Der Rosenkavalier at the Vienna State Opera.
Reigniting her recital partnership with Julius Drake, this concert promises an evening of captivating and enchanting music.
