Benson Wilson

Lucy Colquhoun piano

Last year the New Zealand-born Samoan baritone Benson Wilson won the coveted Kathleen Ferrier Award, catapulting him to the forefront of the ranks of young singers. For his Festival debut with accompanist Lucy Colquhoun he performs songs and lieder by Butterworth and Schubert in a concert that promises plangent melody, tender emotion and thrilling artistry.
