About Rachel Fenlon
Known for performing self-accompanied song recitals as both singer and pianist, Rachel also appears widely as a chamber music and opera soloist.

CBC praised it as “an outstanding new record… extraordinary,” and BBC Radio 3 called it “extraordinary and spellbinding.” Remarkably, it is the first self-accompanied Winterreise ever recorded.
