While staying in England, Haydn wrote a series of songs to English and Scottish texts that deserve to be performed far more often than they are today. The versatile Belgian soprano Lieselot De Wilde has performed at AMUZ before. “Lieselot De Wilde sings delightfully, with the right subtleties, lovely diction and measured expression. […] A performer of genuine class!” was Radio Klara’s enthusiastic reaction to her role in Trois visages d’Hécate. She engages in dialogue with Korneel Bernolet’s elegant interpretation of the unusually richly developed keyboard part.
