Emma Bell, soprano and Andrew West, piano, perform a programme of works by Berg, Walter, Marx and Wagner.
After studying at the Royal Academy of Music and National Opera Studio, soprano Emma Bell won the Kathleen Ferrier Prize in 1998, and has since developed a reputation as one of the leading sopranos of the younger generation, appearing in concert, opera and recital. With her regular pianist partner Andrew West, she sings a selection of songs including Joseph Marx’s melodic, dream-filled Traumgekrönt and Berg’s ‘Seven Early Songs’, written under the guidance of Arnold Schoenberg.
‘Bell ... is, quite simply, one of the most beautiful things you will ever hear’ Guardian.
