This series, 'A Life in Song', recorded at the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland, is centred on the pianist and song specialist Malcolm Martineau who has chosen three of his favourite singers to join him across the week of broadcasts. Today American mezzo-soprano Susan Graham sings an innovative programme based around Schumann's Frauenliebe und Leben song cycle, interspersed with songs from several countries and in several languages which highlight and explore similar themes and emotions to those in the cycle.
