Petroc Trelawny and Josie d’Arby present full coverage of the BBC Cardiff Singer of the World Song Prize final. Five singers perform the intimate and demanding discipline of ‘art song’ or Lieder. With just a solo singer and piano on stage, there really is no place to hide. 

Tonight’s expert panel of judges are acclaimed Welsh soprano Rosemary Joshua, celebrated Argentinian mezzo-soprano Bernarda Fink, leading accompanist Anna Tilbrook, multi-award-winning composer Errollyn Wallen and chair of the jury, John Gilhooly, director of London’s Wigmore Hall.

Petroc and Josie are joined by Irish soprano Ailish Tynan, who won this competition 20 years ago. Who will follow in her footsteps and be the next to claim the BBC Cardiff Singer of the World Song Prize title?
