She has selected some of her favourite music and takes the role of accompanist for the majority of the evening. She is joined by baritone Wolfgang Holzmair and tenor Mark Padmore in songs and duets by Schubert, Schumann and Mendelssohn, before cellist Sonia Wieder-Atherton teams up with her in Janacek and Schumann.
