Beautiful tenor voice performs art song accompanied by classical guitar | The Oath Maker

The Oath Maker paints a familiar picture of foreign policies that come bearing the promise of peace, but depart leaving quite the opposite. A Screenshot of Now, is a revelatory song cycle for guitar, three solo voices and narrator, created by composer/virtuoso guitarist Giacomo Susani and poet/lyricist Chinwe D. John. The duo met in 2024, after John discovered the evocative music of Susani, whilst searching for a composer to set music to the inspired lyrics she had written. Bringing the songs to life, are three of the most acclaimed classical vocalists of our time: countertenors Tim Mead and Alexander Chance, and tenor Daniel Norman. The resulting stellar recording released by Linn Records, has touched the hearts and minds of both listeners and critics.
