Seductive Voices

Live from Symphony Hall, Birmingham, the CBSO and conductor Kazuki Yamada are joined by soprano Fatma Said for a concert of music by Mozart, Mahler and Strauss.

Direct from Symphony Hall Birmingham the CBSO and conductor Kazuki Yamada are joined by soprano Fatma Said for a concert of music by Mozart, Mahler and Strauss. The concert begins with Strauss's tone poem Don Juan recalling music's greatest seducer, a story which shares associations with Mozart's opera Don Giovanni. And Mozart also appears in the CBSO's programme, two of his most seductive orchestral arias sung by the soprano and R3 New Generation Artist Fatma Said, who is also the soloist in Mahler's heaven-bound Fourth Symphony.
