NORTH: ‘FROZEN SILENCE’ – the first of four linked song recitals inspired by the main points of the compass.
This is the first of four linked song recitals devised by Joseph Middleton, inspired by the cardinal directions – north, south, east and west – each with its own mood, geography, and artistic identity. The North brings harsh beauty, stillness, and deep inner life. One of the most in-demand artists today, British soprano Louise Alder has firmly established herself as ‘an instinctive singing-actress’ (The Arts Desk) and “a terrific talent, combining a big, lustrous voice with flawless intonation and keen intelligence” (The Times). She appears regularly in recital, concert and opera at leading venues including Wigmore Hall, Royal Albert Hall, Royal Opera House, Metropolitan Opera, and many more.
