Leeds Lieder's 2019/20 season starts on Saturday 19 October 2019, with the first of five concerts at The Venue, Leeds College of Music. On Saturday, soprano Carolyn Sampson and pianist Joseph Middleton (artistic director of Leeds Lieder) open the season with a programme including Richard Strauss' Four Last Songs, and music by Haydn, Mahler, Debussy and Koechlin.
