In 2019 the New Zealand-born Samoan baritone Benson Wilson won the coveted Kathleen Ferrier Award, catapulting him to the forefront of the ranks of young singers. For his Festival debut, he performs a rich array of songs and Lieder by masters of the genre in a concert that promises plangent melody, tender emotion and thrilling artistry.
