Jess Gillam with... Ed Lyon
Jess Gillam and tenor Ed Lyon share the music they love, including music by Mozart, Monteverdi and Regina Spektor.
This week Jess Gillam is joined by the singer Ed Lyon, a versatile tenor, celebrated for his interpretation of baroque repertoire. Ed plays Jess some tracks which mean a lot to him, including vocal works by Mozart and Monteverdi, and a something from the Russian American singer songwriter Regina Spektor. Jess brings along some musical discoveries too, including Shostakovich, and the contemporary Serbian composer Isidora Žebeljan.
To listen on most smart speakers just say "Ask ѿý Sounds to play Radio 3”.
