Rossini’s Barber of Seville Overture sets a lively tone, followed by the gentle charm of Elgar’s Salut d’amour and the rich textures of Sospiri. Vaughan Williams’ The Lark Ascending brings a sense of calm while Amy Beach’s Romance offers is a rare gem. To end, Puccini’s Intermezzo from Manon Lescaut. Liz Nolan presents a showcase of unabridged musical masterworks, featuring live recordings of Irish and international performers, plus selections from the latest CD releases.
