Four Last Songs with Houston Symphony

Ms. Willis-Sørensen returns to Houston, where her career began as a Young Artist at the Houston Grand Opera Studio, to perform Strauss’s renowned Four Last Songs with the Houston Symphony Orchestra. This performance is part of the Strauss Festival, celebrating the 160th anniversary of Strauss’s birth. Ms. Willis-Sørensen, who previously performed this piece at Buckingham Palace for HRH Prince Charles’s birthday in 2018, received praise from Olyrix: “To this melancholic and lyrical music, the soprano brings her dark and deeply singular timbre.” The Houston Symphony Orchestra, conducted by Juraj Valčuha, will perform on June 1st and 2nd.
