- Barbara Hannigan, conductor & soprano

- Munich Philharmonic
In this impressive programme, Canadian singer and conductor Barbara Hannigan digs into the deep-seated emotions of the “dark side” – from Charles Ives’ unanswered and hence perennial question of existence to Joseph Haydn’s “Mourning” symphony to Claude Vivier’s heart-rending retrospective of his childhood. The soprano part in Lonely Child – “a long song of solitude”, as the Canadian composer Vivier described his work – is taken by the intrepid Greek soprano Aphrodite Patoulidou.
