Bass-baritone Ashley Riches wowed our Festival audience this year in a performance of Die schöne Müllerin and it is a pleasure to welcome him back to give a recital with Joseph Middleton featuring the repertoire from their latest album recording 'A Musical Zoo', a recording that was shortlisted for a BBC Music Magazine Award. Demonstrating humans' fascination with the animal kingdom and the subsequent inspiration of several composers, this programme offers a variety of songs spanning nearly 160 years, ending with Vernon Duke’s pithy, witty settings of Ogden Nash.
