Since iooz the trio have worked closely with the renowned Scottish singers Lorna Anderson (soprano) and Jamie MacDougall (tenor). The Royal Society of Edinburgh and the University of Edinburgh are delighted to be able to bring these artists together, for one night only, and hear all five performers breathe new life into Haydn's songs. The evening offers further delights with a link up with one of Scotland's pre-eminent composers of this generation, James MacMillan CBE FRSE, who will introduce his newest work, Lament for Mary Queen of Scots written for the trio and singers, and commissioned by the Chancellor's Fund, University of Glasgow. |
