Nardus Williams & Elizabeth Kenny: Virtuoso Songs from 17th Century Italy
26 April 2025, 7:30pm - 8:50pm
Winner of the Rising Talent award at the 2022 International Opera Awards, Nardus Williams has been described as having 'boundless appeal' (The Guardian) and 'a knockout combination of melting vulnerability and lustrous ardour' (The Times). She regularly collaborates with Elizabeth Kenny, one of the world's best-known lutenists. This promises to be a special and memorable evening of intimate music making at the highest level.
