With an increasingly high profile in opera as well as concert and recital work, the Scottish Nicky Spence is a rising star on the musical scene. Joined by pianist Julius Drake, and mezzo-soprano Jessica Dandy, they perform Janácek’s song cycle closely associated with his obsessional love for Kamila Stösslová.
