The Mysterious Forest

Recital for Art Song Canberra by Susannah Lawergren (soprano) and Bernadette Harvey (piano).
Songs about the mysteries of nature, bookended by two versions of ‘The Forest’ by Mozart and Ross Edwards. Nestled between exquisite cycles of songs by Mozart, Grieg, Haydn and Edwards, we are brought briefly back to reality in Katy Abbott’s ‘The Domestic Sublime’ and conclude with the most mysterious, beautifully atmospheric songs in the program, Ross Edwards’ ‘Five Australian Songs’, written between 1979 and 2021, the final one written especially for Susannah and Bernadette.
