Joey Roukens: Visions at Sea
Mezzo-soprano Claire Barnett-Jones was catapulted to fame when at the last moment she stepped in for the 2021 BBC Cardiff Singer of the World competition, reaching the final and walking away with the Audience Prize.
Inspired by the Georgian era’s ambitious exploration of the high seas, this concert with pianist Libby Burgess features Elgar’s rapturous Sea Pictures, maritime songs by Gabriel Fauré, Franz Schubert, Rebecca Clarke and Madeleine Dring, and the atmospheric 2011 quartet by Dutch composer Joey Roukens, Visions at Sea.
