The recital will end with Berg’s Sieben frühe Lieder (1905-1908) in a sextet arrangement by Reuben Pace for voice, piano, clarinet and strings.

Said will be accompanied by pianist Christine Zerafa and guest musicians Godfrey Muscat (clarinet), Nadine Galea (violin), Stefan Calleja (violin) and Desirée Quintano (cello).
