Rachel Baptist was a fascinating figure of the 18th-c. Dublin music scene. Not much is known of the ´Celebrated Black Syren´, other than she was a soprano of African descent and born in Ireland, sang regularly in Dublin, London, Liverpool and other cities, and performed alongside famed castrato Giusto Ferdinando Tenducci. The programme includes works that Baptist might have performed at the ´Grand Concert of Vocal and Instrumental Musick´ held in 1752.
