Soprano Lise Davidsen reveals familiar and unfamiliar works in a new light, including a catchy baroque pop song and some calming chamber music by Mozart.

Lyric dramatic soprano Lise Davidsen is one of today鈥檚 most sought after opera stars. For this edition of Inside Music, Lise chooses a number of singers who have inspired her, including Jessye Norman, Ren茅e Fleming, Kirsten Flagtad and Anne Sofie von Otter, as well as Eva Cassidy and Ina Wroldsen.

Lise also selects powerful orchestral pieces by Benjamin Britten, Jean Sibelius and Ludwig van Beethoven and enjoys the vocal qualities of the flute in music by Camille Saint-Sa毛ns.
