Biography

Elizabeth’s 2022/23 season is punctuated by three recitals with pianist Simon Lepper which she has curated especially for London’s Wigmore Hall, celebrating the significant song-output of British composer Samuel Coleridge-Taylor. Spring 2023 will see Elizabeth make her US recital debut with performances at Vocal Arts DC in the Kennedy Center, Washington, D.C. Last year, Elizabeth released her award-winning debut solo album Heart & Hereafter – a collection of twenty-five songs by Coleridge-Taylor, fifteen of which were world-premieres. Further highlights this season include the title role in Strauss’ Ariadne auf Naxos, and his Vier Letzte Lieder, first with the BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra, then under the baton of Carlo Rizzi to close the season.
