ѿý Cardiff Singer of the World 2023: Song Prize Final (4/4)

Iain Burnside and Rebecca Evans present the nail-biting final of this year's ѿý Cardiff Singer of the World Song Prize competition, from St David's Hall.

Iain Burnside and Rebecca Evans present the nail-biting finale of this year's ѿý Cardiff Singer of the World Song Prize competition.

Five of the world's most exciting young singers are through to the final stage of the 2023's lieder and art song competition. They'll be performing on stage at St David's Hall in Cardiff, for an expert jury chaired by Wigmore Hall's Artistic and Executive Director John Gilhooly. Expectations are high, and there can only be one winner. Whoever secures the prestigious title follows in the footsteps of some of our finest recitalists, among them, bass-baritone Sir Bryn Terfel, the first recipient of the Song Prize in 1989, baritones Neal Davies and Christopher Maltman, and sopranos Ailish Tynan and Elizabeth Watts.
