Karen Cargill and Simon Lepper
Mezzo-soprano Karen Cargill and pianist Simon Lepper perform sensual French songs by Debussy, Chausson, Duparc and Hahn alongside Wagner's highly-charged Wesendock Lieder.
The Internationally renowned Scottish mezzo-soprano Karen Cargill makes her EIF Queen's Hall debut appearance. With her regular musical partner Simon Lepper, they perform a sensual and delicate selection of songs of Chassson, Hahn, Duparc and Debussy alongside Wagner's highly-charged and romantic Wesendonck lieder. Wagner based these songs on poems by Mathilde Wesendonck with whom he had fallen in love and the music reflects much to be found later in his opera Tristan and Isolde.
