Carolyn Sampson is one of today’s leading sopranos. Her wide-ranging and eclectic programme celebrates the launch of her 100th recording. Equally at home on the concert and opera stages, she has enjoyed notable success in the UK as well as throughout Europe and the US and performs with the most illustrious orchestras and opera companies. Joseph Middleton is her wonderfully sensitive accompanist and a leading light in contemporary lieder programming.
