Where is home? And what does it mean to return there?

She and Musical Director Simon Beck present an evocative, witty, sophisticated set of songs on the theme of homecoming from composers from Cole Porter and Johnny Mercer to Leonard Bernstein, Stephen Sondheim and John Bucchino.

Valerie’s West End roles include Fraulein Kost in Cabaret, Marlene Dietrich in Piaf, Madame Egorova in Beautiful and Damned (the story of Scott and Zelda Fitzgerald, directed by Craig Revell Horwood) and The Queen ofTransylvania in My Fair Lady. She played Madame Giry in The Phantom of the Opera, Mrs Mullin in Carousel and Ninotchka – the role played by Greta Garbo in Ernst Lubitch’s 1939 film Ninotchka. In 2015 she played Rafaella in Grand Hotel at the Southwark Playhouse, the role she took over in Tommy Tune’s original Broadway production. Valerie has performed in cabaret at Birdland in New York and at London venues including the St James Studio, Jermyn Street Theatre, Soho Revue Bar, The Old Vic Theatre Bar, Freud’s in Covent Garden, Wimbledon Theatre Studio and Torch in King’s Cross.

Crossing Continents: Ricardo Curbelo and Fiona Harrison in Concert @ Lauderdale House | England | United Kingdom

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.
