Spence's debut solo album "20th Century Art Songs" showcases the vocal capabilities of the trumpet/cornet by translating works originally written for voice and piano. Crafted as a miniature "tour" of art song throughout the 20th century, the album highlights compelling vocal repertoire that is seldom explored by instrumentalists. Through his musicianship and deep research into the relationship between music and text, Spence, along with pianist Andrew Welch, offers a sonic landscape designed to bring listeners on a poetic journey without uttering a single word.
