An odyssey through 20th century European chansons
From the Russian cabaret artist Alexander Vertinsky to Edith Piaf via the music of the Comedian Harmonists in the early 1930’s, Daniel Donskoy will perform German, Yiddish, French and Russian chansons, accompanied by Inga Davis-Rutter and her trio. Each evening will also include guest performances by London’s most acclaimed West End performers.
A Song Goes Round the World is transferring from St. James Studio after its premiere in May 2016, that was received with great critical acclaim.
***** ‘Truly Magical’ – Views from the Gods
**** ‘An outstanding mastery’ – Jonathan Baz
Donskoy’s background is as eclectic as the programme of this evening. He was born in Russia and raised in 1990’s Berlin, before coming to London via several years in Tel Aviv. A Song Goes Round the World is Donskoy’s first solo show; further acting credits include BBC4’s Detectorists, the ITV1 Drama Victoria as well as playing Jim O’Connor in Tennessee Williams’ Glass Menagerie at Nottingham Playhouse.
“In times of uncertainty relating to the European Union, this is a chance to bring Europe together through music – even if just for one evening”, says Donskoy.
The evening will include songs from life in the poor Parisian faubourgs, Yiddish theatre tales of loss and joy, songs sung by Russian political prisoners of the Tsar, witty German cabaret and much more.
Collaborative Artists’ latest major production You Won’t Succeed On Broadway, If You Don’t Have Any Jews was nominated for Best Off-West End Production at the 2016 WhatsOnStage awards.

String Dimensions
String Dimensions, founded by Bogdan Vacarescu in 2017, is a London-based chamber ensemble of international soloists.
String Dimensions is no ordinary chamber ensemble. United by a mutual interest in performing music all too rarely heard in today’s concert programmes, they have given the UK premieres of Antonio Bazzini’s works and perform neglected repertoire such as Fritz Kreisler’s String Quartet and works by Enescu and Cherubini. Their programmes also include original arrangements of well-known classical works for string duos, trios, quartets and larger groups.
The ensemble features Allegri Quartet cellist Vanessa Lucas-Smith, Canadian violist Brooke Day, Japanese violinist Akiko Ishikawa and it is led by the Romanian violinist Bogdan Vacarescu.
They all perform internationally in the most prestigious festivals and venues such as London’s Kings Place, Sydney Opera House, Cheltenham Music and Melbourne International Arts Festivals, as well as on radio and television worldwide.
Programme:
Grieg – String Quartet No 2 in F major (Unfinished)
Kreisler – String Quartet in A minor
Interval
Bazzini – String Quartet No 6 in F major
Liszt – Hungarian Rhapsody No. 2 (quartet arrangement)
