2015 Spivey Memorial Concert
Pre-concert talk at 7:15/ $62
A supremely expressive story-teller in song, British tenor Ian Bostridge
creates performances of intensity, conjuring melody, words, and a
nuanced range of tone qualities to extraordinary emotional effect.
“After the final notes of Schubert’s “Im Walde,” he seemed rapt, and the
audience held its breath, and applause, until he finally gave the
signal that life could resume. That kind of hold on an audience can’t be
faked” (The Boston Globe).
