SONGS FROM AMERICA
Frances Jellard (contralto) and Michael Haslam (piano) present a concert of theatrical songs by Charles Ives (the father of American Music), George & Ira Gershwin, Kurt Weill & Ogden Nash, and Stephen Sondheim including selections from the seductive One Touch of Venus, the ridiculous Pardon My English and the luscious Follies.
"Michael and Frances perform as one. The wit and grace that they bring to the repertoire is captivating and enchanting. Frances effortlessly inhabits the musical text and matches her beautiful vocal timbre with Michael's eloquently beautiful piano playing. A dream team!"Laurence Cummings (Artistic Director of the London Handel Festival)
"What a duo! A joyous, life-affirming programme of glorious hits (and should-have-been-hits) performed with panache, verve and audacity. An uplifting, celebratory evening."Martin Parr (director of plays, opera and musical theatre)
