Spring Weekend of Song: Young Artist Platform Audition Recitals - Session III

The 2015 Oxford Lieder Young Artist Platform Auditions

Six exceptional duos at the start of major careers have been shortlisted to give a 40-minute programme. Adjudicators Sophie Daneman & Stephan Loges will appoint two duos to be Oxford Lieder’s ‘ambassadors for song’, giving recitals around the country as well as at the Lieder Festival. A wonderful chance to hear these emerging stars in a wide range of songs.
