Monday at Last with soprano
Welcoming English soprano Ruby Hughes.
String trio ZPR was founded by Cecilia Zilliacus, violin; Johanna Persson, viola; and Kati Raitinen, cello. Monday at Last is a concert subscription in which ZPR invites guest musicians to explore new and old music together, often in close contact with the audience.
On this occasion, ZPR’s Cecilia Zilliacus and Kati Raitinen have invited a British and a Swedish guest. Soprano Ruby Hughes studied in England and Germany and has an international career on opera and concert stages alike. Pianist Bengt Forsberg is widely known for his work with Swedish mezzo soprano Anne Sofie von Otter and other prominent singers. As a chamber musician and soloist, he is noted for performing neglected repertory.
