When Le Figaro wrote 'this woman must come from another planet' they got it absolutely right! Barbara Hannigan is an exceptional artist, revered for her sensational voice and her charisma, and tonight she brings her passion for music and her skills as a singer and as a musical director to a programme which plays with the contrasting and complementary sound worlds of Mozart, Haydn and Stravinsky.
