Rosalind Plowright's new CD is her first recital CD (see my review) and she is giving a recital in London on 10 June to launch the CD, providing us with a welcome opportunity to hear her singing the repertoire from the CD live. The disc includes songs by Stradella, Brahms, Tchaikovsky, Falla, Weill, Quilter, Stanford, Britten and Bridge and the recital will be a lovely chance to hear her performing some of them. Always a dramatic performer, Plowright in recital is bound to be something striking.
The concert takes place at the Vernon Ellis Foundation, 49 Queen's Gate Terrace, London SW7 5PN, on 10 June 2014, 7pm for 7.30pm. Tickets £30 to include wine & canapes and a signed CD; for tickets apply to vernon@vef.org.uk
There is a sample from the CD on YouTube.
