Emerson Sieverts, tenor
Barbara Hollinshead, mezzo-soprano
Ruaraidh Sutherland, piano

Mother-son duo Barbara Hollinshead (mezzo-soprano) and Emerson Sieverts (tenor) have devised an inverted, topsy-turvy program exemplified by Benjamin Britten’s Abraham and Issac. The generational swap in this beloved canticle inspires other selections, including a rearranged Bach duet with the soprano line sung by a tenor and gender-bent songs of Hugo Wolf.  Britten’s folksong arrangements will give a traditional close to this somewhat unorthodox recital.
