A Tribute to Hans Hotter - Songs by Schubert, Brahms and Wolf
Shenyang (bass-baritone)
Llyr Williams (piano)
Llyr Williams first worked with Shenyang in 2007, when Llyr accompanied Shenyang through the ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Cardiff Singer of the World competition. Shenyang went on to be crowned overall champion.
Shenyang created this programme as a special tribute to one of his greatest musical heroes: Hans Hotter, the legendary German bass-baritone. Shenyang says "I never met Hans Hotter but, even so, I learned a lot from him. He had a very special style of singing which you don't find today."
