For the third Temple Song of the year, we are delighted to welcome one of the world's pre-eminent singers Anne Sofie von Otter. Described as possessing 'one of the most flexible and natural vocal instruments of any living artist’ (Opera Now), she will perform a range of English songs, as well as exploring beautifully crafted works from Berlioz and Schubert.

Miss von Otter is joined by pianist Julius Drake and British actor Henry Goodman for an evening of Shakespeare settings and readings.
