A selection of verses on the above topics, devised as an adult show, but tolerable to some 10 year olds. Verses concerning Keats’s relationships with vegetables and surgery. A long look at love, both on, and off the buses and musings on the old chestnut of Orpheus’s disruptive turn around. Deep and daft. Come and Sing.

then and now
Alison Guill, once full-time singer, now teacher, mother and part-time gin sipper, is accompanied by Martin Leberman in this somewhat eclectic, hopefully entertaining and slightly indulgent musical journey. Between Schumann and Sondheim, Mozart and Menken, Michael Head and Kander & Ebb, Alison will share anecdotes about auditions gone wrong, mistaken casting, toddlers and terriers. There is bound to be something for everyone so come and join us for a varied and enjoyable evening.
Proceeds will go to support Mind and Cancer Research UK.
Ricardo Curbelo (Harp, Cuatro, Maracas, Vocals)
“A sheer delight to see and listen to” (Arran Music Society, 2016)
Fiona Harrison, (Classical Guitar)
“… a musician of great sensitivity both to her instrument and the mood of the music … gifted with a superbly confident technique.” (Hampshire Chronicle)
Travel on a rich and exciting musical journey with these two fine soloists.
Innovative Latin American harpist, composer and poet, Ricardo Curbelo, combines traditional music from a variety of Latin American countries, together with his own, spellbinding compositions. Vibrant, energetic and jazzy pieces contrast with more classical, enchanting melodies and tender vocals. He is delighted to share this concert with wonderful classical guitarist, Fiona Harrison, who will also present a fascinating and varied programme of music, crossing cultures and centuries from Renaissance England through to contemporary Japan.
