Ailish Tynan (Soprano); Iain Burnside (Piano)
With 'a lyric voice of delicious purity' (Opera Now), Ailish Tynan has made a speciality of French song. The mélodies of Gabriel Fauré lie at the heart of his romantic but elusive style, and this selection ranges from the composer's youthful embrace of Italian style to late and quietly innovative settings of Verlaine in which simplicity and profundity of expression go hand in hand.
