Join us for a captivating evening of music as English tenor Laurence Kilsby, winner of the prestigious Bollinger International Song Competition, and his piano partner Ella O’Neill, an acclaimed pianist specialising in vocal collaboration, present Awakening. This one-hour recital takes place on Saturday, 16th November at 7pm at St Mark’s Church.

In Awakening, Kilsby and O’Neill will guide the audience through a poignant musical journey, exploring the emotional and romantic awakenings of life, from childhood to adulthood. The diverse programme includes works by Brahms, Saint-Saëns, Wolf, Schoenberg, Rebecca Clarke, Hugh Wood, Jake Heggie, and Kurt Weill, offering an eclectic mix of songs that promise to resonate deeply.

Having recently released their debut CD, Awakening, which critics describe as “an intriguing & eclectic programme full of disturbing elements complemented by performances of remarkable maturity,” the duo’s live performance is not to be missed. Robert Hugill of Planet Hugill praised Kilsby’s “chameleon-like performance” and O’Neill’s “remarkable emotional depth,” making this recital a truly immersive experience.
