L’heure espagnole is really quite a naughty opera but there’s something really sweet and funny about it too. I think maybe the characters are deep enough for us to be interested in them but not so deep we’re actually going to feel bad for Torquemada?

available for a month so maybe 21st November 2020.
This is a really good concert which I enjoyed a lot. I was
stressed before the concert but it made me feel better.
Allan Clayton sang most of the concert but Stephanie
Wake-Edwards who is a Jette Parker Young Artist at the Royal Opera House sang
three songs. James Baillieu accompanied them both. It is quite an unusual
recital because there aren’t many groups of the songs by the same composer but
Mr Clayton’s songs did have a connection because they either had a connection
to Benjamin Britten, John Donne or both of them. It’s really interesting hearing
songs that are grouped together for different reasons and seeing the
connections between them.

Available until: I think recitals are available for one week
which would be 3rd October 2020
I love the Wigmore Hall recitals but I don’t really know
what to say so I don’t usually review them but I wanted to review this concert
because I really like Gerald Finley. He is a very good singer and a very kind
man.
