As Halloween approaches, two international stars present a thrillingly haunting programme of songs, descending from the mortal plane into the realms of the mystic and other-worldly. Captivating Greek soprano Aphrodite Patoulidou, described by the LA Times as ‘a class above’, is joined by renowned Lied pianist Keval Shah, hailed by The Times as a ‘profound’ programmer, for a concert of music by Schubert, Loewe, Marx, Britten, Zemlinsky, Sibelius, Riadis, Saint Saens, Clarke and Crumb.
