Soprano Ailish Tynan with music to stir the emotions
Soprano Ailish Tynan opens up a colourful selection of music from the inside - revealing familiar and unfamiliar works in a new light.
Soprano Ailish Tynan is used to tackling some of the biggest dramatic roles in opera and there is plenty of action in her choice of music today. She’ll be playing bracing orchestral works by Mussorgsky, Handel and Messiaen, and as contrast, there’ll be intimate drama in music by Judith Weir, Gabriel Fauré and Schumann. Plus the closing part of Puccini’s tragic La bohème.
Ailish also showcases two superstar singers of their day: Irish tenor John McCormack and celebrated jazz vocalist Betty Carter.
A series in which each week a musician explores a selection of music - from the inside.
