The performance is a part of Leeds Lieder
Today’s Video of the Day is a performance of Edvard Grieg’s ‘Zur Rosenheit’ by soprano Louise Alder and pianist Joseph Middleton. This performance was recorded live at Leeds Town Hall in 2020, as a part of Leeds Lieder, when concert halls were still closed to audiences due to the pandemic. The duo is performing at Leeds Lieder again this year on 10 April. Their programme contrasts the finest romantic song with new works by remarkable Scottish composer Helen Grime.
